    Wine and Dine Half Marathon Weekend (Oct. 31-Nov. 3, 2024)

    This is your reminder that @runDisAlerts on the platform formerly known as Twitter can notify you when spots open up. I think it's how I've registered for my past two races after missing release day.

    Wine and Dine Half Marathon Weekend (Oct. 31-Nov. 3, 2024)

    I'd take one if you still have it.

    Wine and Dine Half Marathon Weekend (Oct. 31-Nov. 3, 2024)

    I was on the treadmill getting my gait analyzed when my alarm went off for registration. I joined late, and still have over an hour on my link. If anyone has anything better, I'd appreciate it.

    My Time dining reservations

    You can make a reservation or you can just show up. There's a line for people with reservations and a separate line for people without. On one cruise, it seemed like the no-reservation line was 45-minutes long, but on another cruise, there was no line at all. The show times aren't consistent...

    Spam/Scam?

    When I googled the number, I get a hit for a thread from four years ago talking about the call from DVC, and a link to the DVC web page. It seems legit to me.

    SW flight change/availability issue

    When your flight is changed by more than a certain threshold of time, you are allowed to change to "any available flight" regardless of fare class. There's no additional charge.

    How does deeded real estate expire?

    This is a common concept in Hawaii. You own the building, but Disney owns the land. At the end of the ground lease, they take ownership of everything on their property.

    Trying To decide Where to purchase me HOME RESORT PLEASE HELP

    I'm not a huge fan of Riviera. I think it looks like a basic building with lots of rooms crammed together. But, my favorite resort is Bay Lake Tower, which gets the same complaints from other people. So, it's really all your own personal preference. Boardwalk expires much sooner. If you...

    How to pay your annual dues

    I remember hearing that they wouldn't be able to take payments for dues today; something about the accounting systems and "too busy processing automatic payments" according to another post here. But the banner message at the top of the screen says that you can pay dues online today despite the...

    **UPDATE** Has this happened to any other resale buyers? Fidelity made it right!

    I feel like they're still not telling you the truth. When you book a cruise, those points become "reservation points" and are no longer in the DVC system. You can't cancel and get those points back; they can only be used for cruises and hotel reservations at that point, not DVC reservations.

    Marathon Weekend 2024

    I witnessed someone getting their distance in by doing laps on the banquet floor at the contemporary. Absolutely genius!

    Marathon Weekend 2024

    I put 4:31-5:00 since I haven't run fast enough for a POT. My best half is 2:19, so I'm hoping for a sub 5 time. My bib is 26xx.

    Marathon Weekend 2024

    Thanks! I figure the people running a challenge are there now. My marathon compatriots probably aren't in that mess yet since we have more time.

    Marathon spectator Qs

    I think you're cutting it close. My family is planning to watch at those same locations, but they're going to get up with me and go to the starting line at 3:30am. Starting line: Epcot Rocket parking lot Mile 3: view from Bus area or opposite side of parking lot (if available, not listed as...

    Marathon Weekend 2024

    Does anyone have any idea about corral breakdown for marathon-only bibs? I've been doing data analysis on last years' bibs and start times in an effort to gauge where I might be.

    Marathon Weekend 2024

    I can still make a park reservation with my regular tickets, but nothing is available with my AP. For Friday, I've got my kiddo booked for Hollywood Studios with the AP, and I managed to book Epcot with my AP a few days ago. My plan is to hop over with kiddo after 2pm.

    Time allowed to complete course

    7:50 was the clock time; so, with a 5am start, that's crossing the finish line around 12:50.

    Marathon spectator Qs

    Any suggestions for getting from Animal Kingdom to the finish line? My family wants to watch me run by in that park (mile 15) and also watch me cross the finish line. I don't think there will be park-to-park buses. I'm guessing either a bus to a nearby resort and transfer to an Epcot bus, or...

    Marathon spectator Qs

    Starbucks was not open for the 2022 Princess Half or 2023 Marathon Weekend Half. The shops on the west side of main street were open, but the running route prevented spectators from getting to the east side. I'm told that some people got coffee somewhere, but it wasn't Starbucks.

    iPhone settings for running(NRC)

    I'm more worried about my Apple Watch battery. I usually run with just the watch and some wireless headphones, and that will last through the half, but I don't think it will last an entire marathon. I've been told that keeping my phone with me will cut down on the watch's battery use since the...
