2008 Goofy 40% Full!

[ultramickeymouse]

I just heard that the 2008 Goofy has over 1200 apps in the last week which makes it 40% full. If planning to do it, better sign up before the end of the month or you might not get in.

That half or full don't typically full up until the summer. Believe me, there will be posts like crazy when they are close to capacity.

I don't have % for them yet but expect the Full to fill really this year also due to the 15th Ann. They are hyping the "Top Secret" finishers medal that won't be scene until the finish on race day.

Chad saw the Goofy was 40% full online today too. He is in panic mode. We were going to wait to register until I had the 'ebay funds' available for his registration. But I think I am going to come up with the cash somehow now & mail his application in tomorrow - have to save a couple bucks with the DVC discount, ya know!

Wow......... I registered back in May for this year's Goofy and it was only 60% capacity or so. I guess people want that 15th anniversary bling.

 

[disneybelle]

is it posted on Disney's website? Is there a way to pre-order the ltd ed pins with the mail-in registration? Anyone have a directy email contact for the marathon group for questions?

Thanks.

Thanks for the info. Panic mode here...

I'll check for link to email at home if you don't get a reply before I get there.

well that stinks!

I guess I better make a decision pretty darn quick then.

 

[KelNottAt]

Oh dear.
I thought for sure I'd do the full...

Now DS might do the half, so I'd want to be there with him to make sure a 15yo isn't alone...

But I really want to do the full, too...

So I figured I'd register for both and play it by ear...

But if I complete both, I might as well get credit for being Goofy and register as Goofy...

But if I register as Goofy then don't do both, I'm taking a Goofy spot from someone else...

Oh, the dilemma!!! And now I don't have as much time as I thought to decide!

Cam should be mailing in my registration form today for the 2008 Goofy!

I must be crazy and/or Goofy.

I can blame it all on Lynne.

Mr PumpkinKing,

Inquiring minds want to know if you and Paul are going Goofy again in 2008?

After gaining yours and Paul's wise advise Susan and I decided to do the Full for 2008 and leave the Goofy to another year if ever LOL Memories of wanting to take a nap in the MK instead of finishing the race are still going thru my head.

Hope to see you both in 2008! BTW, you both looked awfully nice with all 3 medals I was happy to see a few Goofy's doing that and it really was a nice look but I imagine a bit hard on the necks.

Now the Disney website says it is 50% full!

 

[TEK224]

Guess I'll be sending in my form tomorrow! Nothing like giving Disney my money to hold a whole year in advance!

Thanks for the kind words Diane.

Well, I won't be doing the Goofy challenge next year. I doubt I'll go to Florida next January. I am starting a carreer change as a teacher and probably won't be in a position to ask for the time off. Paul isn't keen on doing the Goofy challenge next year, but that is what he said last year so anything is possible.

I do want to try to do the Disneyland Half this year though. It is Labor Day weekend, so I think it will be feasable for me.

 

[DianeL]

That will great if you do DL this year and then you can let us know what changed for good or bad We plan on going back but probably not till 2008 or 2009.

Bummer about you not being there in Jan but hey congrats on the coming the teaching job!!!

Can't wait to hear how DL goes this year. Your the first I've heard looking at going this year. All in all it was well done in 2006, I remember thinking that it seemed tougher than WDW now I'm rethinking that LOL That ramp after Mile 10 is a thorn in my side lol Though Jan 2006 that ramp didn't bother me as much as it did in 2007.

Ah well the DL course was nicely entertaining and one I can't wait to do again.

Do you mean that they received 1200 apps in one week? Or since registration opened?

 

[ultramickeymouse]

Yes, there were 1200 entries in the first week!

Out of curiosity, what was your source for this info? Also, is there a number to call to be updated with the capacity percentage?
