So I guess that means there are less participants for the night races.

I didnt get anything either. Nothing. Glad we have our forum. I need to guest packet pickup forms to be released. That is what Im stressed about.How the heck did I miss that waivers/bib numbers were released??? Did you get an e-mail? I GOT NOTHING!!!
Anyways, most of you know me as fmingo36 but my name is Coryna (pronounced COR-REE-NA). I will be co-hosting the Meet & Greet with my buddy Joel_Maxwell.
My bib# is 2674
My hubby, Chris is 2673
And I registered myself first---so weird how they assign bib numbers!
I have no idea where we'll be in regards to corrals and I have found in the past that unless you have a low bib number (like Joel) where it's almost a guarentee for Corral A it's kinda of a crap shoot. I will say that if you have run a DIsney race and have an official Disney race time they probably are more likely to place you in a corral more accurately than someone's first race that has an estimated finish time.
I did see on the Disneyland 1/2 marathon thread that there was a website for corral placement. I'm going to see if it works for this race as well.
Looking forward to meeting all of you face-to-face.
28 Days till Race night!
That was indirectly directed at you, and only you. Ha!Again...you know me so well!
I think you are correct. Not that many Corrals, but enough people that I couldnt see the end of the line from A around the corner. That means, a lot of people per corral.

Ill be proving in a bout a week, a nice printable sheet detailing the meet n greet. From our experience of Disney events and time allotted for things, Coryna and I discussed it and I think we are looking at a 8pm meet. Buses start at 7 (unconfirmed, just from experience) so that gives you an hour to get there, do bag check, get to the meet, chat, take a group photo, get to the potty and still have an hour to kill in your corral.
Sound good. Ill have a map to the meet location next week, you just cant be too detailed when dealing with this many people.

I hope we can get something like this together for the Marathon weekend! I so wanted to do the Tower of Terror, but funds won't allow 2 Disney races that close together!

Mark, it looks like we'll be in Corral B together.

I believe there were between 8 and 9,000 finishers at Wine and Dine last year. Divide that by 5 and that is a lot of people in a corral.

Totally agree with you.
You know I could be a much better athlete if I had money up the wazoo to spend on a personal trainer and had a nanny to watch my kids for hours so I could train. More emphasism should be put on the Everyday Joe that has to balance work, family, the budget, and lack of time (and has to deal with jerkies throwing trash at them or harassing them as they attempt to get a training run in
Those people are the true inspirations out there!
So true!!!
I can't tell you the # of times I have been "honked at; whistled at; & screamed/yelled at" *Sigh
Really ppl ... get a life & leave us alone to train

I have 2 more days of WDW fun with my wife (sans kids), so I am going to head back afterwards by 12:30ish. That would be quite the adventure though... I havent pulled a true all nighter in quite some time.

I would contact the RUNDISNEY people about that. He will have to show ID to pick up his race packet. I wouldn't want him to have issues with that.

Same with me. My flight out of MCO is at 9:00 AM on Sunday. Maybe we'll be on the bus together.

My flight is at 7:30 so i don't think we'll be on the same bus since it will be around 4:30 I'm guessing. Flight back to the West coast are always earlier than I'd like them to be...
Not that leaving WDW is ever easy. See you at the meet and then again at the after party though!Ps I like you signature quote... so true justifying trips to the parks when you've done all that running. it makes it okay to eat that second (or fourth) Mickey bar too!

Yeah I live on the west coast so when I'm flying back it will feel like the middle of the night. Hoping that will help and that my legs won't be too achy from the run. I might invest in some compression socks to help, has anyone else done this when the fly? I think I read somewhere that they are suppose to help.

My bib number is 3199 - and I registered just before they reached capacity. My bib number for the last Tower of Terror race I ran (year 2 of 3) was 600 - quite a difference! But for that one, I registered early. Still, this race looks to be much more popular than the old 13K race.
Still not planning to make it to this race, but you never know. Surprised the official program is not posted, nor the final instructions which the site says should be posted approximately 1 month before the race . . . and we are inside 30 days!

Compression socks and/or sleeves would be beneficial for the plane ride, especially that close to the finish.
