Corrals/bib numbers?

[Zela]

Does anyone have a link to the picture of the corrals and what bib numbers are in what corrals from last year (i think)

This is NOT correct for 2010. More participants so the numbering schemes have changed. I also expect an additional wave in the half based on Disney webcasts. I seem to recal a change to the full start. This is based on the new race times of 5:40 am. I ask why not 5:30?

Anyway, the increase in marathon spots pushed the first half number up to 35,000 making at a minumum the fisrt half corall to start with 35,000.

Does anyone know how many entries they are allowing in the marathon? I notice it is 94% full. Are they going to be closing it soon?

Charles Could it be that the runners will be starting at 5:40 and the chair's at 5:30???

I know that there will be a lot more chairs this year so they might be allowing a 10 min head start.

That's what I am thinking... The race is at 5:40 and chairs earlier. Hopefully better organized for the chairs than last year as I seem to recall they were sent off on one of the races just a couple minutes in front of us. It's hard to hold the start for more than 5 minutes but I would not be a surprise to see a full 10 minute advantage.

I understood 22 to 24,000. Since it is profit from this point forward I would not expect to see the entry close until 2-4 days before race and only then to move things over to the expo. This may be the first time we see an ‘expo entry’ desk at Disney.

If they don’t fill maybe we will get a reprieve on cost increases for next year. Or if they were smart they would structure a discount program like other races. I would enter next year’s event at the expo IF given a steep enough discount. (Otherwise I am waiting until Monday post race … and I guess the RD knows that.)
