2011 Disneyland Half Marathon dates?

[johde]

Has anyone heard what the dates for the Disneyland Half Marathon will be for 2011? I teach college and was looking ahead at the calendar and next years summer break is September 3 till Sept 19th which matches OK with this years half marathon. I've never been to California and this might make a good excuse to go out west.

The 1/2 is on Sunday of Labor Day weekend. I'm guessing Sept 4th unless they change it for some reason.

Thanks for the quick reply. I had noticed this years 1/2 was on Labor Day weekend but didn't know if that was coincidence or an every year sort of thing. Not to start budgeting money and DVC points for the trip. And figure out a quick cure for jet lag. I might be able to fly out August 31 but It could be as late as September 3 and 6:00am Pacific time is 3:00am Eastern time. Thanks again

FYI, per the booklet for this year's race, the race is on 9/4 next year. Also FYI, 6AM Pacific is 9AM Eastern. So, you'd actually be MORE awake than us Californians running along side you

Yea, I initially had my thinking backwards. It's not getting up for the race that's going to be hard. It's staying up long enough for Fantasmic and WOC.
