It’s reminiscent of the 50 “somewhat hidden” anniversary icons that Disneyland placed on the attractions and around the park. I think they’re hyping it up a little too much for what it is, but it seems pretty harmless and a nice visual tie-in throughout the resort. Some of the choices are a bit...

Moana was for the kids’ races last year, so she was still a part of the event - she just got a nice promotion. 😊

Oh yeah, I’m totally in agreement with you! I think I said it before in this thread, but the OG medal design is still my favorite- classic, clean, and has a cool Spaceship Earth design with light F&W elements. I know they’re probably trying to find a wider audience with the villains, and I can’t...

I’m not usually a fan of colored medals, but these are fun! Is the potion vial filled with sand/glitter? That’s a cool unique touch!

It’s been absolutely awful lately. I’ve been watching the Track & Field Olympics coverage, and they were saying it felt like 104 in Tokyo yesterday, so I try to tell myself that it could be worse, but… it’s rough….

Those are some impressive park distances! We were at Epcot for a couple hours Monday evening too - funny to think we might’ve crossed paths. I hope you had a great trip despite the pain!

Ah, that's true.

I definitely would have predicted the 10K before the Half. Actually, I would have thought Dopey before the Half too...

I am so sorry. That is a beautiful way to honor your friend. ❤️

GKTW, and I didn’t see any mention of a virtual option - it looked like there was only a fundraising opportunity if you wanted to donate, but didn’t want/need a bib.

That’s awesome! Congrats! The charity that I was interested in also sent out communication that they had bibs available, so I’m in for the Half! I’ve never run a rD race for charity before - but I’m excited to finally make it happen! Also relieved that I’ll be able to avoid the potential crazy...

Were you successful in receiving your email this time? Or did you have to prod them again?

A very full fall race calendar and 4 months less advance notice are probably the biggest factors, coupled with already restrained resort availability (plus aggravation towards park passes, etc.) and people either desperate to travel and booked a big vacation elsewhere or are still too scared to...

When I was looking at archive.org to find the historical prices for W&D, I came across that old site layout! Brought back memories. 😊

So crazy, right? It’s great that the servers held out, for the most part, and everything went smoothly. But honestly I’m really surprised only one distance is sold out. Is everyone holding out for “the main event” (Marathon Weekend), since W&D is fairly close-in and room availability is already...

My anxiety levels are already high just thinking about it! 😬

I’m not surprised… With so many rD newbies, they probably wanted “insider knowledge” of what the registration process was like before their desired event opened. Hopefully they look quickly and leave so those of you who really want to participate can successfully register!

Goodness, could they make this any more difficult/stressful? 😅 Thanks for the information!

Was CMN a charity (non-sponsor) for the other race weekends, or just Princess? It sounds like they’re making the charities commit upfront to all 3 race weekends (with the Springtime Surprise to be assumed to be added later), which initially ties up a lot of funds. They have to buy the bibs, room...

Agreed - I saw Second Harvest was listed as the features charity for W&D, and you could add on a donation as part of registration. So hopefully they’re not cutting out a sponsor charity for Princess weekend altogether. These weekends are a huge help to these wonderful organizations, not only...
