You are right. The 2013 race info is linking to the 2012 travel info. So they may be different. I believe the All-Star Resorts have been host resorts every year along with Beach and Boardwalk.

I think the last part should be "...if they know there is a race that weekend."Don't be surprised if the cast members at the resort know very little about what is going on, except that there is a race that weekend.
To kaf7878- I fully expected to spend the night with my friends enjoying Epcot, we even talked about taking the monorail back to MK which was also open until 3am to ride some rides. Our reality- we walked to Soarin (stretched a few times on the way) looked at each other and hobbled to the bus. I am impressed with anyone who is able to actually make it around the countries! But then again, it was the first half for us.
Wow on the price increase! I know it is only $25 but still....

Shoot- you just shot down my night plans! Well there's always wheelchair rental. Who wants to push me to all those drinks?!?
See, I'm on the fence about the after party. It'll be my first half, and I'm not sure how hobbled I'll be. I'm a post bariatric surgery patient, so drinking is a super bad idea (literally two sips of my beloved Grand Marnier slushie and I would be sloshed). If we decide not to attend the after party, will my DH and DDs be able to cheer me on? I honestly don't know, since the park will be closed.
Possibly stupid question....can you buy tickets to the after party if you're running the 5k?

Year 1 Brutally hot and humid. Severely overcrowded. Poor volunteer coordination. Logistical screw-ups. Racers passing out and puking all over. Only World Showcase was open. Hobbled from Millennium Village to France. Sat down and a friend brought me my 'free' food. Walked a friend to BWV, drove back to OKW. Popped a bottle of bubbly sat in the tub and was at lunch at the Poly around 1:30 the next day.

DCbride said:My problem with the afterparty was I didn't take the day seriously. Up at 5 to run the 5K, afternoon at MK and headed straight from MK to the race. It was a crazy long day! This year we are skipping the 5K and sleeping in that morning! Beginner stupidity!
