Summary
He crossed the finish line of a 100-mile ultramarathon in the Florida Keys, showered on the beach, and drove straight to Fort Lauderdale to board the brand-new Disney Destiny the next morning. Nine-time DCL sailor Josh joins us to break down how he pairs grueling endurance races with Disney cruises — and what boarding a ship on legs that just ran four marathons back to back actually feels like. In this episode: How Josh turned Disney cruising from post-race recovery into a full-blown tradition across nine sailings The wild 24 hours between crossing the finish line at Keys 100 and boarding at Port Everglades Why trip insurance won't cover an ultramarathon-plus-cruise combo, and what that risk actually looks like His honest take on the Destiny's dining, entertainment, and Wish-class layout, including one hot take about Lookout Cay vs. Castaway Cay The one piece of advice he gives every Disney cruiser: be fluid, not over-scheduled What's next for his race-and-sail tradition "There is no moment like when they finally check your last passport, your last little thing, and you're like, OK, we're here."
