Race themes have been announced in this blog.

It's a duel style, each race features a light & dark side character.

So glad I chose the 10k. Never done one before. I've got a good feeling about this.

Glad I picked Dark Side...

Glad I picked Light. Skywalker for the Challenge!

Does anyone know when they will reveal what the medals will look like?

2018 reveal was January, I think.

The 2020 race is gonna be lit ya'll.

Hey everyone, we are registered for the 10K, and I was wondering how to submit a recent time for a 5k we ran. I feel like this used to be obvious on the RunDisney site, but now I can't find it. Do we even need to do it for a 10K?

Nope.

I hope I can run in April. I got a small meniscus tear on a half on October 28th that I was going to use for my time. Last three miles were on a rail trail and it was muddy and I slipped. Limped rest of way to finish for a 2:57 time. Ugh. Doing physical therapy now.

They don't accept times for 5Ks. And the only race you really need to submit a POT for is Half or Full

Just remembered, I only ran the 10K during 2017 Wine & Dine and the registration did ask an estimated pace, but there was no proof required. Check the e-mail you received after registering.

I signed up for the 10k and did not have to submit a POT. I've never ran a race before, so I made sure that it was not required. Just have to keep a 16min/mile pace.

Got a 2-BR at Kidani Village. Love this place. Not the best for a running weekend but it's worth the trouble.

We are staying at Bay Lake this year for Star Wars. Stayed at Kidani for the 2016 inaugural race and Boardwalk the last two years of the race. Changing it up.

I stayed in Jambo in September. That whole resort is really cool. I'm staying at CBR for the race. Never stayed there before, but it looks like its a decent size for running around. Some of the reviews have me worried though.

 

[Texas84]

Just ordered my race pins. There is even a passholder pin now.

Just doesn't work for the face characters. Love the virtual.

 

[Swissmiss]

I think the half marathon medal is nice looking, and I like the virtual one as well but the rest? Kind of “meh” for me (but then again I’m not running any of these so it doesn’t really matter what I think )

 

[LAKid53]

rD is hot & cold when it comes to medal designs. Agree, other than the virtual, the race medals are not that great.

 

[HiJe]

I'm in for the 10k (Han Solo/Boba Fett) medal and am trying to keep a positive attitude about them. They could have definitely had a better design though.
