Vacationing.

Vacationing.

Nice!

Did your department know ahead of time that runDisney was looking at a pretty significant date change?

I'm only seasonal so I have ZERO knowledge of anything really except day-of operations.

Anyone planning to do a Halloween party this race weekend?

Probably

 

[surfsupdon]

Probably

Maybe me too.

Instead of a park tix, maybe this ticket plus Epcot after party.

Not surprised with the medals…still moving farther away from the traditional medal look. Just my observation- I’ve never run one “for the medal.”

I actually think they are reverting back a bit. The more recent ones have been a bit simpler compared to the last couple years. I really like these.

The medals are fine, they aren’t the best or the worst just fine. Found out today that this is the 10th anniversary so should be fun.

Special shoutout to the Challenge and Half medals.

They have been weird with anniversaries lately. I don't understand it.

10th anniversary of what? The challenge? Because wasn’t last year the 15th anniversary?

The 1st challenge was in 2016.

This race weekend is unique in that for years there was never a challenge.
Actually the 5K and Half took place on the same day- morning and night. I ran it a few times. Anyone else remember and do it too???? That was a real challenge!
The first ‘challenge’ was Lumiere’s Two Course Challenge- they added a 10K to make it like the other weekends. For Wine&Dine, calling them courses worked really well.

The After Party is on the same night as a MNSSHP. Which would you choose??

That really depends what you prefer. The Halloween party will be $200+ per person. The after party will have some rare characters as well, short lines, and if you aren't doing the half, there were people selling their tickets for $25 last year.

After party mostly because it's included in challenge and half and the halloween party hasn't changed in years.

 

[surfsupdon]

I’m def going to the after party as usual.
But hoping the MNSSHP conflict will allow me to purchase an additional after party tix for cheaper than Disney is advertising.
Please let me know if you have a ticket that you will not be using. Thank you.
