Inaugural Star Wars Half Marathon Weekend - January 15-18, 2015 (Disneyland)

[Texas84]

That sucks. I hope you can get in next week!

Ah, so it isn't really sold out yet? These are just AP/DVC slots?

Right. From what I understand, there are a certain number of AP/DVC slots available, and then there are slots available to the general public that will open up next week. So maybe you should grab your 5K slot today??? I'm guessing that'll be the next one to close to AP holders/DVC.

Great idea. I got in for the 5K. I'll try the challenge next week. Thanks!

I was lucky and got in right at 12 through the DVC link and got the Rebel Challenge for myself and the Half for the gf. The DVC page actually had the links to the race pages on Active.com up early. I kept refreshing those and they became active a bit before 12. Not way early, just a minute or two it seemed. I was racing through the Rebel Challenge registration afraid it would sell out on me!

Congrats, @Furiated!!

I just opted to go for the half on the DVC page and just registered...I felt like the Rebel Challenge being full was the universes way of telling me to spend that 125$ on something else...I am super excited for the half! It's my graduation present to myself, I finish my BSN program a few weeks before!

For 99$ there better be an open bar...Although I really don't drink alcohol in the days leading up to a race, so that would be wasted on me.

I still can't decide if I want to do this race. It would be so cool to do the inaugural challenge but my wallet is so tired after this year. I think maybe I might be a volunteer instead. Has anyone done that before?

I guessing the Challenge will sell out in minutes so you have about 24 hours to decide on that.

Thinking about volunteering for the ToT this fall. If I do I'll post a report. I've seen some reports online.

 

[Ariel484]

T-minus 1.5 hours!

I'm guessing this one will sell out insanely fast...faster than any of the other Disney races.

For lunch I will be pulling up a chair and keeping an eye on the runDisney facebook page for all the freak outs and complaints when they start rolling in at approximately 12:01 est.

"You should open more spots!"
"How will I do Marathon Weekend AND Castaway Cay Challenge AND Star Wars???"
"You need more girl races!"

...and so on.
