Disney Wine and Dine Half Marathon

[lukacseven]

methinks Wine/Dine will not go through DHS at all ? I could be wrong but I see this as a logistical nightmare for crowd/runner control.

..does the full go through DHS?

The full barely goes through DHS anymore. Enter the park behind B&tB, past ToT, down Sunset and left to exit the park. They could still do that and not be impacted by SWGE. I think the hope among runners is that they return to the former course through DHS, which would incorporate backstage, TSL, SWGE, then past the commissary & former GMR, then exit park.

What does that represent? The marathon course the past few years was a little different...

Bypassing Hollywood Blvd during SW:GE madness.

At that point why even bother with DHS? Could it still follow the current course?

This would be a token solution for the marathon '4 parks' thing to avoid Hollywood Blvd. DHS might get bypassed for W&D.

I'm so tempted to do W&D again. 10th anniversary stuff.

gaahh me too. After being disappointed with Princess I feel the need to be redeemed by a runDisney event. But it's JUST not in the budget if I'm A) doing Dopey 2020 and B) moving to FL in the next year

What the heck, runDisney? Neither the AP or DVC links are working.

I’ve gotten as far as the holding room - it went through on Chrome only to tell me it goes on sale at 10am.

That's what I got, also. Same for AP.

 

[Figment82]

Finally got through using Chrome. Had to do it twice, as it didn’t give me a shirt size option for the half and kicked out the entire registration. Ugh! Got myself signed up for #10 (!) and my daughter for a kids dash.

Finally! What a major cluster....

 

[LAKid53]

rD is really going to need to improve the process BEFORE the 2020 Dark Side.

 

[LAKid53]

I noticed we can now select gender and size for the 5k race shirts. Does this mean no more heavy cotton shirts?

Agreed! At this point, I shouldn’t expect any different, but yet I still think maybe they’ll have their act together this time, lol!

 

[Texas84]

I'll wait for regular next week.

I'll wait for regular next week.

Or do early registration in a day or two.

Go to the AP page on the Disney website. Find the list of events/tours and scroll until you see rundisney. Click on that, which should take you to the page with the Register Now button. Press it, which takes you to the rD AP page. Select the race you want to register for. But make sure you also open your rD account.

The links weren't working until 10:30 this AM. And it was a mess after that to register. Wasn't asked for my shirt size, which halted my registration, but charged my card. Had to back out and start all over again.

Isn't this the 3rd race to use the new registration process? They really need to get it fixed before SW 2020 early registration opens up in July.
