Disney Wine and Dine Half Marathon

[LAKid53]

I've only been through Traditions/orientation. I have my 1st runDisney training day tomorrow. From what I understand there are still a LOT of moving parts getting back to live events and wine/dine is quickly approaching.

Thanks.

And yes it is....

Expo starts 2 weeks from tomorrow.

My party card is in today's mail, according to the USPS.

Didn't the waivers used to have bib numbers? So confused.

They did. I was going to ask where on the 4 page form the bib number was.

Wonder if those are charity bibs bring returned.

@dreamfinder, in all your experience, have you seen all races reopen 2 weeks before the 1st one runs?

Can't say I recall seeing that. This year has been all over the place, so not really surprised? Maybe tweaking numbers as they get closer to nailing down plans, seeing final COVID counts and the like. If some of the charities are trying to unload bibs at cost w/o fundraising, I wonder if they aren't able to return them this year? Might be some of those differences that we were speculating about back when they were slow to roll stuff out.

Make sure you use that $15 e-card. They expire November 21st.

One more time, 5k is back open again!

 

[dreamfinder]

5k sold out again. Other in person still available, only two course available for virtual.

 

[Demarke]

Everything was briefly back again this morning, but currently and “for the first time in forever” (TM), the 10k is sold out in addition to the 5k.

Got my post race party ticket and I love the disclaimer - “uh we have these excess fastpass+ tickets and didn’t want to just throw them out, thank u”

What time are the fireworks for the AfterParty evening??

When and where do we want to meet up?

I’m up for suggestions.

Somebody needs to book a big table for us all at Space 220, our $15 gift cards should just about cover the sales tax (only half joking, I would be totally down to check it out once if anybody else wants to try for a reservation, I figure it would be cheaper trying it while I’m on a solo trip instead of paying for two next time my gf joins me, haha!)

There's absolutely nothing available....

However, our $15 may cover fish & chips.

Harmonious starts 15 minutes before the park closes, so 8:45 PM.

We can get into Epcot with our ticket starting at 5:00 PM. I'd say after the park closes at 9:00.

Ended up in the ER this morning with a bad case of vertigo - turns out I have an ear infection. I had an 11 mile run scheduled for tomorrow, and as much as I hate to skip it (my last long run before the half), I definitely don’t want to risk falling or injuring myself. Im accident-prone enough as it is! I’ll try to add in some more miles over the next week to make up for it.

I hope everyone else’s training is going well as we enter the final stretch!

Hope it clears up quickly for you!

Oh, dear.

Hope your ear infection clears up quickly. Less than 2 weeks to go.
