Club run disney

Remember, we have a week to register! Links will show up sometime today and if for some reason yours doesn't you have time to get help from runDisney.

I know I'll still be anxious, but maybe it will help somebody.

Same here.. I don’t understand them.. what could be that complicated about sending the emails … ohhmmm

 

[DianaMB333]

Got the mails! Hope that yours are good too

I got mine. I don’t need them, but I got them. I’m going to hang onto them just in case some miracle happens and my fall plans change in the next week (it’s an infinitesimal chance)

Let's gooo!!

Like some others, was planning on doing W&D weekend as a virtual option until I saw my beloved Figment for the Challenge. Torn between attending in person vs. virtual. Let's be honest, it's really about the ability to purchase Figment merch and potential meet-and-greet, which we've heard previously was coming sometime in 2023. Great use of early expo access!

Needing to assess the likelihood of training/race success of three in-person runDisney back-to-back weekends if deciding to fly down for W&D. The current plan is for DL 2024 (already registered), plus MW 2024 vs. SS 2024. Was hoping to see what the C2C challenge medals might look like before deciding, but am thinking that is unlikely to happen.

Last time DH and I ran three back-to-back weekends was for DL Superheroes, MW, and Princess, and ended up with pretty nasty overtraining injuries. Finished all races due to sheer stubbornness, and fully admit that's not a good way to go!

Virtual is the safest route (and kinder to the piggy bank), but will then miss out on chance to possibly add a Figment race jacket to my collection. Sigh...a few more sleeps to decide.

I haven't gotten mine yet (singular as I'm only Gold) I've reached out to the support email.

I reached out about my one missing email as well. Hopefully they clear it up.

 

[DianaMB333]

Fingers crossed for you both.. hope it is an easy fix

In the same boat- received one link but not the other. Reached out and received the boilerplate response to check my spam and junk folders It’s 2023 and I paid a ridiculous amount of money to get advanced registration. Don’t you think I would have checked already before telling you I haven’t received my link?? Grrrrr.

I called after I posted. All she said was ,”the emails were sent out today. You should receive it this afternoon.” Pretty generic. I just hate having to call and follow through. I mean I know we have until next week it would just be nice not to have varying times of receiving it. Or don’t post that it’ll be available to register at a certain time,

Hey Softballpooh - what was the number you called when you had this issue back during the DL registration?

I haven't even received that boilerplate response yet.

I don’t understand why they can’t just have the CrD registration links right in our accounts? The emails seem like an unnecessary step where too many things can go wrong so easily.

Just a note of warning though that there is no person with runDisney that will assist by phone. They only verify your email and can answer generic questions. It's super frustrating. My issue was resolved by email using the Contact Us form on the website but only after a lot of back and forth. I even tried to be proactive for this registration last week and said I do not receive their emails when sent in bulk and could I please add a secondary email- note they do not allow this. They told me I could reset my Disney OneID with a new email which I refuse to do because it means I would have to reset every password and email for all of my Disney related accounts.

Alas, I'll just have to jump these hoops every single registration period. Maybe it's why they give CrD a week to register to be able to deal with their IT nightmares

 

[jpeterson]

I finally got a response and it was confirming that I was registered for the challenge. Not answering or addressing my issue at all. I wanted to scream at the email, because it was clear they didn't read what I sent AT ALL.

I am guessing the accounts aren't built for such. Disney has a whole has an IT problem but its much deeper than that. A lot of their systems are old and then patched and then new systems are built on top of those or to work in conjunction and that just doesn't work.

For example, the theme park reservation system was built on what was the fastpass+ system.
