Coast to Coast Challenge

[Sunshineminnie]

Hi Everyone!

The Goofy marathon was so much fun. Although the second half of the full was very challenging (heat and all), I loved it!

I had heard about the Coast to Coast challenge. I thought that that would be fun and I'd love to go to Disneyland.

Does this weekend count towards that race, or does it need to be the princess half?

CONGRATULATIONS to all that ran or walked in any of the races. I hope that everyone had a blast!

Yes the if you participate in the WDW full or half marathon and you then do the Disneyland half you will get the coast to coast medal.

cool. So how do you go about doing that? Do you need to sign up in a certain way? fill out a form or something? Or do you automatically get the medal for just participating?

If it's handled the same way as last year, you won't need to do anything special. Your name is matched up in the Active database. You will need to sign up with the same name, same birthdate, maybe same address, etc. However, this year might be different. :confused3

When you get to the expo, you'll be given a special armband to wear. When you finish the half, you'll trade that armband for the special medal. It is awesome!!!!!!! It's one of my favorite medals. :goodvibes

The pic of the coast to coast medal is on the Show Me the Bling (http://disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1783112&page=4) thread. WISH I had pockets full of $$ so I could get there for one of those babies.

Congrats to everyone who ran this weekend. The last half of the full was challenging but I was up for it, loved every minute of it and can't wait to feel that feeling again !

I'm definitely going for the bling this year and participating in the coast to coast challenge. I'm running the Disneyland 1/2 Labor Day weekend.

That's my ultimate goal to get the coast to coast bling! I was looking at 2013 because the Mickey medal will be the 20th anniversary, but I don't think I can wait that long!:thumbsup2
