Hi All,
I Signed up for my first Dopey, and have a question for all the more experienced runners here. I have done a few half marathons, and in October 2021, did my first marathon. After the marathon, I couldn't bend my legs (actually during the marathon). Took me a few days until I could even get up and down from a curb without a lot of pain and patience. No issue during the half marathons, but the marathon was a bit hilly - Chattanooga, Tennessee, so that might have been the issue.
ANYWAY....I'm worried. I was thinking of renting a scooter offsite for the evening of the marathon, and the two days after, when I will be visiting the parks. It will be a lot less expensive than getting one from Disney, but it might also be a waste of money if I end up not needing it. Has anybody here needed a wheelchair or scooter after their races, or rented one prior to their race "just in case"? Thoughts?
