For anyone who has run the 5k at Castaway Cay recently, how early did you get off the ship? The first time I ran it back in 2015, we got off the ship early, ran the 5k and were walking back to the ship as everyone else got off. I've read reports that say that this no longer happens, because people were signing up for the 5k and then heading straight to the best spots on the beach instead. I've also read that they've been a bit disorganized with some runs, causing the runners to get off the ship well after everyone else. I want to do the 5k, but I'm worried about losing a large chunk of beach time. I only get 1 day of island time every few years, so I want to make the most of that! I was thinking about maybe signing up for the 5k and judging how fast things seem to be proceeding and just bowing out if it looks like it's going to take too long, but I was wanting to hear what other people have experienced recently!
