[TnTsParty]

My bib # is 1846. This means its getting close!! YIKES

[DianeL]

Great! If we're in separate corrals I'm going to be spending at least the 1st mile maybe it will take her a 1 1/2 miles till Tracy flies by me. I'm going to be spending the entire time looking over my shoulder! :lmao: Should I just put my shirt on the floor tonight and walk on the back and save Tracy time from having to put HER foot prints as she TRAMPLES me!?!?!??! Anyone have LIME green chalk to outline my body after Tracy JUST walks by me? :lmao:

If anyone needs me this weekend I will be out working on running while looking over my shoulder the entire time. Thankfully there aren't too many trees NEXT to the path :rotfl:

Tracy :hug:

[dsnyfan21]

Oh Diane!! I hope we are in the same corral (if there are corrals) We have been in the same corrals up till now, don't know why we would be separated!! I want to be with my corral buds!!
If I am segregated to the corral behind you I will try to catch up and be kind if and when I pass you!

Tracy

[DianeL]

Tracy

Oh it's only a matter of when. 1/2 Mile or Mile 1? Be kind? So you don't want me to toss lime green Sport Beans at you as you pass? :lmao:

[dsnyfan21]

You can throw sports beans at me - especially if they are LIME GREEN!!

Tracy

[Millenium Mickey]

My bib #'s
1633 - 1/2 marathon
479 - 5K

I'm curious to see if there are really 10,000 participants in the 1/2 marathon...

[postesf]

For the Half, I am bib 4308 and my SIL (Daneen) is 4309. For the 5K, I am bib 1461 and my SIL is 1462...

We're getting close! Can't wait to see how the Corrals turn out!

Stacie

[DianeL]

LOL Tracy!

BTW, if anyone feels the need to throw a banana, I'm your girl! Toss me one! :lmao:

Lisa, that's what I'm now just starting to think. I'm off to hunt down the # of Minnie 15K participants to put it into perspective for myself.

I just know I will be having those dreams of myself on World Drive all by my lonesome. I know, I know it'll be fine. I did the Jan one in 3:11 and that was a 4 minute improvement from DL in Sept. But it IS 21 days out and time for anxiety attacks ;) LOL

[dsnyfan21]

Updated!

[twoWDWfools]

Got mine # 4303.

Thanks Tracy!

[Pungodingy]

I'm bib # 3154

[DCbride]

Didn't know if you were going to keep track of the 5K bibs but.....

1872 Steph (DCbride)
1873 Kayla (DCbride's DD)


192 Jacey (DCbride's DD, Family Run)

[hoosmi]

I'm 1003 for the half. I'm getting so excited!

Jen in GA

[CarolA]

Half bib 2027

[smileyk8]

I'm #491 for the 1/2. very curious about possible corrals

[ghoulishgirl]

Me:6696
Mom: 5276
I always hope for a 13 in my bib #. Not this time :sad1: I can't figure out why my mom's number and mine are so different. I always sign us up at the same time! And she's slower than me, so it can't be something with the corrals ( if there are any )

[iceberg1912]

Bib # 3782 for the half.

[queen mimi]

Me - Bib #3603

DD #3604

[2BoysMom]

Bib #3789 for the Half.

-Donna

[dsnyfan21]

Hi, I am updated to this point.
Sorry, I am not keeping track of numbers for the 5K. Reasoning for doing it for the Half is their is usually corrals set up for the start. No corral for 5K's, so really no need to organize them, unless someone would like to do it - feel free to start one!!

Tracy

[jeanneg]

I'm 3083 and hubby, John is 3084.

[Kimickey]

Happy Valentines Day Ladies, Its great to see everyone here and excited that the Princess half is right around the corner!

My bib number is 6051! I feel like I just ran the Disney Full yesterday and here I am right back at it again :)

Hope everyone is well!

Kim

[Princess Runner]

My bib # for the 1/2 2284 also curious about the corral, thank you for finding out about it. My time is better than a year ago for Gasparilla but I am sure they won't take just words for it.

[Hockeychic]

Me too!!!!!

3112

[lutherlovr]

My bib number is 3668. Only a few more weeks!

[UP Disney]

My bib number is 5056.

[acourtwdw2]

Just wanted to let you know im not doing the 1/2 only the 5k and voluteering for the 1/2 but I will start a link for the 5k. So we can cheer each other on. Then put the link on here.

[2BoysMom]

-Donna

Hey, lovey.
You missed me. May I be on the list, too?:)

[dsnyfan21]

Gotcha, sorry - sometimes I'm just thinking I did something and I didn't.:confused3

[TnTsParty]

thanks Tracy for finding out about possible corrals - wow looks like I am actually in corral A - makes me kinda feel like an elite :lmao:

[hoosmi]

I'm in there too, but I'm feeling less like an elite and more like someone who's going to get trampled! I can see my tiara flying through the air now... :laughing:

Thanks for the corral info... I'm actually pleased there are less than 10k people running.

[TnTsParty]

Jen in GA

Oh good Jen you will be starting with me!! :cool1:

You blew me away at the end of the Minnie 15k last year and you were pregnant so I don't think you will get trampled. I am getting more excited though the closer this thing gets!! :yay:

[mla1977]

4559, I think. I need to print it out tomorrow.

[gomeztravel]

I just found this site on the disboards. I registered for the princess 1/2 in December. I see that many have gotten their bib numbers. How do I find out what my bib number is?

[DianeL]

Hi Gomeztravel!!! :)

If you haven't already go to the Princess website and there is a link to print out the Half Marathon and 5K waivers. On the waivers are the bib#'s. :)

I seem to recall seeing your 'face' before and am thinking you signed up a long while ago, well long enough that it should be there no problem but if someone is reading this and just signed up say yesterday or today they put a date on the page where you enter your name and info that says what date they are updated thru. My 5K wasn't up right away because I signed up on 2/10 and the waivers were only updated thru 2/9. well on 2/11 my 5K waiver was ready after they updated again :)

Hurry hurry and print the waiver so we know!!! LOL It's the little things in life like my bib#'s that make my day :rotfl:

hey there, my sister-in-law and I both use this log in. she has been on here before, so not me. But I am taking this over :laughing:

Thanks for the info. I just printed it out. woo hoo 3961:cheer2:

[Running Diva]

Hi Tracy, thanks for the corral info. My bib # is 4885. Look for me!! lol...
Tammy

[getnthinr]

Well, I'm way down yonder in the paw-paw patch -- Bib numbers are:

Half: 7171
5K: 71

On the positive side, I guess I got lucky number 7 on my side! :goodvibes

Wendy I about choked when I saw your bib # :lmao: What the heck did you do to get that number?!?!? Didn't you send the Race Director the box of chocolates like I did? :rotfl: (j/k) Are you going to see if they will change your corral?

And WOW on those numbers! That is pretty cool! Luck will definitely be on your side those days! Well at least when it's all over and the photos are up I won't need to ask you what your numbers were :rotfl:

[jeanneg]

Well, I'm way down yonder in the paw-paw patch -- Bib numbers are:




Maybe Wendy doesn't bathe? :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2:

Too funny about the numbers!


OK, I just looked at the list of bib numbers and realized that my wonderful hubby is the only MAN doing the half! Now that's funny! I even picked out a princess for him. (Snow White, because I know he likes the dwarves!) If I remember correctly alot more spouses did the Minnie last year. The fact that there are so few men is not good for us ladies. Think about it.......there won't be all that many people using the bushes instead of the porta-potties.....and the lines will go on forever! :scared1: :scared1: :scared1:

I still can't get over Ms 4 time Goofy has 7171. Wendy you really need to show whoever assigned you that number your wall o' medals :lmao:

[ultramickeymouse]

.

[getnthinr]

I beg your pardon -- I bathe at least once a month whether I need it or not! :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2:

Yeah, if it's like the Minnie, the "corrals" will be nonexistant -- just some pace reminders.

Actually, I'm probably right where I ought to be, considering my recurring injuries and consequent lack of mileage. I'll just do the best I can... No worries.

[thndrmatt]

Bit late to the party here, but 2529.

Interesting about the all women corral A thing, that's a first! Will certainly be crowded, especially since they've gone back to having the outgoing and incoming runners being on the same side of World Drive...

[dsnyfan21]

Yeah :banana: Matt will be there!! Hang with the gang !! GO MATT!!!!!!!!!!!!:worship: :cheer2: :woohoo:

So what princess are you? :laughing:

[bubba73]

Shows you how much of a "dum-dum" I am. I really thought this was an all female race. (Hence the name.) Well, I still want to wish all of my Princesses out there a great race and a fantastic time. I wish I could be there with you!!

Bryan:cheer2:

[dsnyfan21]

Hey Bryan thanks!!

Tracy Thanks for the great job on the runner list!

[ultramickeymouse]

Tracy I've just been over to the Disneyrunning site and I can't find what you are talking about. I went to the message boards-so why don't you share here.

Additional info is on my forum. I just requested that if people take information I get from my sources and I don't post elsewhere, give me credit and where you get it from(ie my forum or website).

Nope, men can do it.....they just can't win any prizes! It's not too late for you to sign up. (at least I don't think so)

[DianeL]

I was just surfing the FOND MEMORIES website and they finally loaded the products they are offering CHECK OUT THE BIB!!!!!! ok so we can't be 100% sure till we show up at the Expo but still....


https://www.fondmemoriesgraphics.com/products.php?year=2009&event=56

Not sure if this is just a mock up (like something this company just came up with), or what it will look like.

Tracy

[DianeL]

true but until the expo i'll enjoy the visions of the poor guys wearing bibs' with PRINCESS "insert guy's name"


OH MATT!!!! lmbo

it's a good thing the guys all have such good senses of humor :laughing:

Next week can't come soon enough :hyper:

[TnTsParty]

I am hoping the guys bibs will say Prince "whatever his name is" but I did LOL when I saw Jean's post. I will crack up if the guys bibs say Princess.

[cgattis]

cgattis has bib number 960 for the half.

Question for photo ops along the way....Are there LINES for the characters along the way? I can see me stopping for 30 seconds for a pic, but not waiting in line DURING the race! Also, are the ASI photographers around to catch those shots, or should we rely on our own (small, sweaty) cameras??

[DianeL]

ASI photographers should be on Main Street and at the Castle as you run down the ramp. They sometimes tuck into the corners. This Jan they also had 2 guys on your left as you ran down the ramp so you were at the base of the castle and could get a photo. The ones tucked in kinda take you by surprise so no lines but the 2 down at the bottle of the ramp had quick moving lines. I think I sort of ran in place and then was in the process of about to take off as the photographer took the pic.

Epcot the park I think has 2 guys in about the same place. The one I think is usually up on a ladder/platform and the other is more ground level. They are pretty much as you pass the Fountain, these guys will hopefully get a photo of you with Spaceship Earth behind you.

The finishline will have a few :) I think there was even one BEFORE the finishline as you were running to it. For some reason I think he was on the right.

Now something I didn't notice in my prior wDW Halfs but did this year were photographers set up on a plateform over the road as you ran between miles 11 and 12 somewhere I think. No I am pretty positive it was before that last ramp that goes into 12. They had the Weekend Race logo on the ground and were taking photos as you crossed the mat with the logo. 1st time I saw this was the MArathon in 2008 so not sure if I just missed it before or what. But neat photo op.

Characters most likely will have lines, you need your own camera for them. I hear they move pretty fast though. As you wait or as you run up get your camera set to go so you can hand it to the CM and get going again. I think the longest line I have ever seen was this year when they had I think 3 or 4 characters together. I know they had Mickey, Goofy and Donald dressed in Colonial garb around Liberty Tree Tavern. Now then I heard the HAunted MAnsion ghosts or someone was out and no line for them! So depends. I didn't wait for any character photos.

In the Minnie 15K I ran up to Mulan and there was NO one in line so I took my camera as I walked/ran up to her and handed it to the CM, photo snapped and off I ran.

I think I sort of ran in place and then was in the process of about to take off as the photographer took the pic.

Diane, thanks for all that good information. I'm a little confused though. Are you saying that you actually had to go and get in a line, or do all the runners just sort of slow down as you approach the photographers? I don't want to miss out on getting a pic in front of the castle!

[getnthinr]

This year there were photographers to pose for, but most years all I saw was photogrphers snapping as we ran by.

This is the advice the ASI guys gave me for getting a good castle photo (and I've gotten some pretty decent ones):

Leave space between you and the runner in front of you. They say this is the biggest problem -- runners jammed up as they come through the castle means some runners simply don't get photographed -- they can't get a clear shot with the number visible -- and that's what they are taught to do.
Stay to the far right or far left. In previous races, I seem to have better luck on the far left, but YMMV.
Keep your hands up and smile until you pass the last photographer at the bottom of the castle ramp. (Shouting "picture, picture" doesn't hurt, one guy said.)


HTH,

[mkymsehi]

FIRST, MAKE SURE YOUR BIB IS COMPLETELY VISABLE. Don't cover it with a shirt or waistpack, or garbage bag (Like Mooshu is wearing, LOL :rotfl2: :lmao: :rotfl:).

http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/gg92/mkymsehi/40036-650-009f.jpg

Don't pin your bib to the back of your shirt (Yes, some knuckleheads do this).

Always make sure you have a clear area 5 feet around you, otherwise slow down and let others pass.

For the pictures exiting the castle by ASI. Coming through from the carousel, there are two photographers at the exit of the castle.

http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/gg92/mkymsehi/40036-1235-016f.jpg

Then you will head down the walkway to your right. Along each of the walkways, should be two more photographers on each side.

http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/gg92/mkymsehi/40337-825-035f.jpg

http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/gg92/mkymsehi/40337-1171-024f.jpg

Then two more at the bottom of the ramp on each side.

http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/gg92/mkymsehi/40036-469-029f.jpg

You need to stay either left or right so they can see you. Scream, whistle, wave your hands, that gets you noticed. Oh, and slow down so no one is in front of you blocking your shot.

The was also one more out in front of the castle on your left, where the Princess show normally takes place. This one has a line, but it moves very fast! I stopped for less than one minute, and had about 14 people ahead of me.

http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/gg92/mkymsehi/40036-589-006f-1.jpg

When you're out on the course, when you about to reach a timing mat, look up and smile. There are photographers and remote cameras usually on ladders. DO NOT HAVE YOUR HEAD DOWN LOOKING AT YOUR FEET!

http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/gg92/mkymsehi/40036-1951-010f.jpg

http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/gg92/mkymsehi/40036-2777-015f.jpg
Here is a shot where I forgot to put up the bill of my hat, and got a shadow picture of my face.


At the finish line, look up, and smile. Be sure to run underneath the timing clock so your time is recorded in the picture. Stop your watch or Garmin after you have passed the last photographer, at least 10 yards past the finishers mat.

And finally, never let an IDIOT get in your way while talking on their cell phone!!! This was a race volunteer. :scared1:

http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/gg92/mkymsehi/phone-1.jpg

[DianeL]

Jeff that is an awesome review of where the photographers are and tips! You should do a separate thread and keep the link so you can bump it every so often :thumbsup2

And :scared1: over the cell phone photo but at the same time i wanted to groan and laugh.

Wendy... great ideas from that ASI guy you spoke too :thumbsup2

Thanks for the excellent tips!!!!

[mkymsehi]

LOL, pay attention to #9 :lol:

1.) Please Take a Number - Wear your race number high in the center of your chest. We use the numbers to identify your photos. Also, remember to wear your number on a layer of clothes that we can see.

2.) Read a Map - Review our course shot locations and be sure to look for our photography teams.

3.) Rub the Curb - When you approach our photography locations, move to one side of the road (don't run right down the middle).

4.) Smile - Smile, yell or wave at our photographers - they love it!

5.) Do a Shot Before You Race - Be sure to get your pre-race commemorative photo by visiting our various corral locations (photographers in the vests) at the start staging areas.

6.) Do a Shot After You Race - After you finish, grab your medal and get your commemorative medal photo by visiting our candid stations. Commemorate your accomplishment!

7.) Celebrate - Don't Watch Your Watch - As you finish, put your hands in the air, or give a high-five to your running mate - DO NOT block your number by looking down at your watch.

8.) Don't Tailgate - At our photo locations and at the finish, don't run right behind someone else. Run in your own space (if you can). That way, you'll get a cleaner shot and really showcase your finish.

9.) Run a 5 minute mile pace. :lmao:

10.) Have Fun!
