Corral placement & proof of time for challenges

Yup! It's a website - you can submit a new Proof of Time every week if you want to!

Thanks, Keels! I can count on you to answer my questions regardless of which thread I post to!

Ha! I don't know that they're the RIGHT answers ... just what I've gleaned from everything so far.

Plus, I have a lot of free time and I've been pretty bored lately.

I'm sure I'm about to jinx myself by saying this...but the race I've used for proof for almost all of the races I've run at Disney is, I'm pretty sure, NOT certified. Results are posted online.

Now I feel like I need to use my back-up proof of time (a certified 10K) juuuuust in case...

For what it's worth, this is the response I received from Track Shack/rD when I asked whether a certified race had to be a course/race specifically certified by a governing body (like USATF):

"In identifying a race that meets the proof of
time requirement, there are two criteria you want to consider in addition to
being the required distance within the timeframe.

1. A certified race. If it is not certified, then it needs to be one
step short of that, which is a measured course. The course has been
measured with specific measurement devices to confirm the course distance.
For example, you want to ensure that you are running a 6.2 mile race not a
5.8 or 6.5.

2. We do not accept self-timed, training or virtual runs. The race
needs to be timed by race management and that typically means with a chip or
tag device. The race management will report to you your finish time and
display results on a website where it can be verified."

Still doesn't totally clarify what "certified" means, but it seems like if you submit a PoT for an organized race that posts timed results online, that should qualify.

I ran the 10k at the Princess weekend in February. Do I need to submit that to run Disney as proof of time for my disneyland half or do they automatically have it in their system? Thanks

You need to submit it to them.

I am trying to decide about Avengers gauntlet - if it will put me further back in the 1/2 I don't want to do it - not sure how to figure that out

This may sound stupid but how do I look it up? I looked online but it only had the half times. I couldn't look it up by my bib number either.
