2025 Summer Virtual Series

[pluto377]

I logged on with one device and figured whatever happens, happens. Got into the challenge easily. I'm a sucker for a cool medal. I really wish they would do a ride theme for an in person weekend.

I haven't done a virtual series in quite some time, when do they generally start sending medals after registration?
I was hoping to have them in hand when I complete the runs. Is that possible or do they send after the 8/31 race date?

they don't send anything out until at least mid-July usually. When I started doing them in 2021 or 2022 , it was laaate August or September but IIRC it was a bit sooner last year.

10 years of Virtual Summer Series - wow! Time flies when you're running with the Mouse. In for another Challenge!

I'm not a virtual race girlie but I am a Jungle Cruise girlie. I didn't pay attention to when registration was, so at 10:29 yesterday my friend texted and asked if I was going to sign up for the Jungle Cruise race. I said sure and logged on and had a 17 minute wait, it jumped up to 24 minutes at 10:33, then at 10:41 I had less than a minute wait and had gotten the race for the both of us shortly after that. By the time I got in, Pirates was sold out.

$h!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!t

I don't need this. I don't need this. I don't need this.

But those ears!

Anybody at the Expo now? What are the crowds like? I need to go at some point today but I'd rather not wait in line for my bib and shirts.

Maybe the ears are the "Keepsake"? So for $2 more you get an additional medal and maybe ears? And cool medals?

Even my massively Disney-cynical self is sorely tempted.....

All races and the series are showing SOLD OUT as of this morning.

I have an echelon stride and do their membership program thing. Got an email yesterday that I got a free entry into the challenge, assuming their limited quantity was still available. I thought for sure I missed my chance, but was able to sign up!

Has anyone received any info on the virtual series? This is my first year doing it. I think it starts soon, but wasn't sure what communication they send out. My co-worker who is also doing it, was also asking about it.

I'm not participating this year, but as I recall you run one 5K in each month of June, July, and August. As I recall, starting June 1 you should be able to log in to your runDisney account and download your kit (bibs, mile markers, etc.). Once you run it you should also be able to enter your June 5K date and time, and you can print out a finisher certificate. Have fun!
