Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend

[RunningKoen]

I'm in for my 3th marathon!

And my sister will try dopey, so I get to cheer each day and enjoy the spirit.

I'm so happy we can be there for the 50th, the 30th, (our 30th aswell), but also our first!
And I get to meet all of you, again!

You can still do either the half or the full. I'm doing the half.

I think I'm either going to try charity or wait and see if Dopey opens back up, don't want it to open, but then be stuck with a marathon and half registration and the headache of trying to upgrade before it sells out again or try to refund the unused spots

Glad you both got the races you wanted. And it will be wonderful seeing you again and meeting your sister.

First dopey red on payment. Then goofy red on payment. Got marathon and will hope I can modify

Anyone have a link to the charity list?

They're listed as travel providers under the Plan Your Trip drop down menu.

We got what we wanted but that was crazy.

No rhyme or reason to the queue, we had 4 windows open between the 2 of us, both our 6:45 (earliest) queues were over an hour, our later windows (right before the crash) were both 20-30 minutes… the kicker is after signing up for the 10k I went to the Castaway link and it was immediate, no wait at all despite my 6:45 queue still showing over half an hour.

That was very confusing but we’re very thankful to be some of the lucky ones who got a short wait and the races we wanted.

Because it requires that you also have a cruise booked to register. So that's a BIG commitment for that race.

For those of you who missed out registering, I'd suggest setting this up.

Thanks, looks like they haven't released any of them yet, all the links seem to have old 2022 information

And you can't do the only one open if you don't have a registration for any of the closed races AND the cruise booked. So perhaps just close the Castaway Cay Challenge?

Great. Now we have to compete with the computers for registration slots. Thanks for the heads up

GKTW is a great charity to run for.

As a perfect Dopey I was already in, so today was just about getting my wife into the Dopey. She and I both joined the queue at 8:45 cst (15 minutes early). When they finally opened registration at 11:30 I was told one hour, she got in within 5 minutes. Glad that is over.

Last year she missed it and ran for GKTW.

My sister is listed under my name with female shirts, but wrong size.

Things that can be worked around! Still so happy we got the bibs. So disappointed for those on here who missed out

I’m sorry to everyone who wasn’t able to get what they wanted. What an absolute nightmare for registration. I hope things go better for the virtual registration on Friday.

I also recommend GKTW. I signed up to run the 2020 W&D 5K with them before everything got shut down. Great organization.

You should be able to fix that.
