The Podcast

Join us as we chat with our friend and first time marathoner, Meredith Rice of Rice Rice Runner. Meredith ran the London Marathon as her first ever 26.2. Join us as we find out how Meredith went about approaching her first marathon and what it was like running an Abbott World Major Marathon for charity.

Meredith’s first marathon was epic. She did everything all out, and she has made some huge memories. Listening to her retell her story is so inspiring and you can hear the joy in her voice. While not all went perfectly for everyone on this race day, Meredith flew away from the London Marathon overwhelmed with gratitude for her family and friends supporting her.

In part one of two, Meredith explains her process by which she selected the London Marathon, how she went about training and preparing for an International event, and how she came to the idea of the Golden Snitch! We loved hearing her story, and hope you stay tuned tomorrow for part 2!

In today’s podcast we dive into proof of time. What is a proof of time (POT), what qualifies for a POT and what do you need to run in order to get a POT?

runDisney requires you to submit a proof of time if you plan to run a half marathon in 2:45 or less or a marathon in 5:30 or less. For a half marathon you can submit a 10K, 12K, 15K, 10 Miler, Half Marathon or full marathon. For a full marathon you can submit a 10 miler, half marathon or full marathon. Results must be posted online. Relays, trial runs, self-timed runs and virtual runs are not accepted.

In today’s podcast we begin by talking about the themes that were just released for the WDW Marathon Weekend races. We then dive into the Wallis Sands Half Marathon in Rye, NH, which Jen raced and attempted to set a new PR and secure that elusive proof of time (POT) for her upcoming runDisney races.
