I knew you would find yourself a new race. That's awesome. Going bicoastal will be fun. Happy planning!
Well I was pretty shocked at the blessing I got to do it. I really shouldn't but CA is a heck of a lot easier to pull off for a quick jaunt. Worst case, I could always defer if I had to.
YAY! Well done for signing up.
Happy planning.
And in your shoes, I would totally renew the AP = More. Trips.
Well...there needs to be funds for more trips. If I did get an AP it would be spending money now I really don't need to. My 2015 needs for DL is about 7 days, the regular AP (which has blackouts) would cover 6 of those 7. It's big price jump to the non blackout one. The special ticket prices for the races are amazing so if that is all I did...I'd spend $150 more than I need to. If I did somehow do another race in that time frame I would save about the same, maybe less. I just don't know that I could pull off another DL race in the time frame the AP would be good for, it might make more sense to buy it in Nov and not worry about it now (it's only a $20 savings to renew versus buying new anyway). That would give me a much bigger time window plus by then I'd know for sure if I was pulling off another race or if the likelihood was decent.
I'm very excited for you, I can hear the excitement in your voice, but I have no idea what a Coast to Coast means??? You don't literally run from one side to the other do you? Hopefully I'm not coming across as a total stupid head...
My bad!
Coast to Coast is when you do 2 runDisney events in one calendar year, one on each coast. You get a special medal after completion of the 2nd race. There are currently 2 versions of C2C medals out there. One, for any combo of races. that is blue and then a pink one that is ONLY if you do the two girly races, the Princess Half in WDW and the Tinkerbell Half in DL. The ribbons change but the medal stays the same. If you do both girly races and then 2 other races, 1 on each coast) so 4 total...you can get both. LOL!
That's awesome! Now please let me know the date so I don't book our band to play Disney that weekend! We played there that weekend last year and it was crazy traffic wise. Some people almost missed the performance!
LOL! November 12-16, with races the 13-15.
Cool! I'd say go for another one. The Star Wars race really looked pretty awesome to me. But then again, that's the first Disney race I've ever seen so I've got nothing to compare it to.
Star Wars would be super cool! Everyone I know who did it, loved it. My challenge is the time, mid Jan. Training in Dec with work is HARD. Granted, training in Sept/Oct is also hard but I figured a November race would force me to stay on track. In 2016 I would love to do Star Wars and then Wine and Dine.
I don't think my budget will allow that and there are (hopefully unfounded) rumors of now W&D in 2016.
I also have no idea what a Coast to Coast is??
My bad, see above!
