Historical POT Cutoff Dates for Marathon Weekend

[Onceuponamarathon]

Yes, I know with Covid all bets are off on Proof of Time cut-off dates. I'm just trying to get an understanding of what cutoff dates looked like prior to covid. I would go to the rundisney site and look at the dates used for last year's race, but it was pulled down when they went virtual.

I seem to remember the deadline for submitting a proof of time for marathon weekend was in October. Does anyone know if the cutoff is traditionally the same time every year? I.e., is the first weekend of October? Or if it has varied widely?

Seems like it was generally the 2nd Tuesday in October or something pretty close to that.

Hi! If you check out this post, it has what was posted for 2020. I'll bet the thread this post is in, at the top of the runDisney forum, may have historical PoT cutoff dates in there too.

Edited to add, I guess there's no need to bury it, it was supposed to be October 20, 2020, for the 2021 race.

I think it got bumped back, I remember it being early October but when they became clear about not POT being accepted at the expo (which is not the truth) it got pushed back a bit further into October.

Yeah, I think it was generally the weekend before Chicago (first weekend in October??). Our local race is usually the same weekend as Chicago, and it was always right after the cutoff date.
