Disneyland Half Marathon

[j.piedrafite]

Completely missed the proof of time and I'm in the last corral. Any idea when I might expect to cross the start? 5:45? 6? I've never been that far back (usually in the middle around E/F), I imagine it'll be pretty crowded. Do they do the waived starts in the corral like they did at WDW in January?

I'd only buy the 'I did it' shirt for the 5 and 10K because they used that race mascottes for a nice I did it design. Im not that crazy about the pixar themes

10 corrals so figure 6-8 minutes per corral.

I'm leaving Tuesday night but started my flight anxiety today.

Nervous flyer? I am too, which is why I'm taking the train in January - a stressless way to travel - and much better food.

Flying out to SNA Thursday!

Space Mountain and Haunted Mansion closed for Halloween overlays.

Space Mountain and Haunted Mansion closed for Halloween overlays.

DLR's party starts later than WDW's?

Starts Sept. 20. Mansion will probably be closed again during Light Side when they remove the overlay. Has been every year so far. Space has been open though.

Phhh dang it I'll really miss space mountain. Like a lot.

I've only been to DL 3 times, and all were labor day weekend (running races twice), so I've never been able to ride Haunted Mansion. Add a fourth this year. It makes me sad. I need to get out there at a different time of year.

Going to be hot in Anaheim. Plan on seeing this yellow flagged, maybe even red flagged. Not the race for a PR folks. Hydrate and take it easy.

 

[surfsupdon]

Hydrate hydrate hydrate!!

But fortunately the race is so early and pre sunrise- hope that'll keep it right around 70 as predicted and not much more.

Any chance these high temps will at least have a silver lining of marginally smaller non-race crowds in the parks next weekend?

 

[LAKid53]

To all my peeps running, have a great race and trip!

Heat doesn't surprise me - it's late August/early September and the Santa Ana's are blowing.

 

[LAKid53]

Have a safe trip everyone! Want plenty of photos.

@Texas84, do you have family in the state? I've been thinking of you over these past few days, hoping your family is okay. I know Austin is well inland, but the entire state is going to feel this.

Thanks. My Texas family was south of the storm and they got ZERO rain. Thankful for that. I was there for hurricane Allen and we had water lapping at our doorstep.

Had to check my flight tomorrow and makes sure it didn't stop in Houston. Both ways stop in Phoenix so I'm good.

Good to hear everyone's okay. Have a safe trip to Anaheim...and a good race!

See you all Friday...

If you see a guy with longish hair and some sort of Tennessee Titans gear on....it's me.
