Marathon 2007?

[Mercy]

When can you start registering for the Marathon for 2007? We missed 2006, but would like to try for 2007.

The registration for the 2006 marathon opened shortly after the 2005 marathon, so some time around January of 2006 should be when it opens.

I was wondering the same thing. I want to register too. I'm not in shape right now but I will be by 2007, one way or another! The marathon is now my main goal in life, I will do it!

MagicalMom... I'm with ya!! I really need to get into shape and a trip to WDW is a good incentive! My girlfriend is already a runner, and she wants to run in 2007 also.

I was just going to post this question! I have been finding my way back to WISH and my goal is to run in the 2007 1/2 marathon. I can't wait! I have a long way to go to get there, but I know I can do it!

Last year, registration opened the day after the marathon. I know, because I was unable to run last years, so I registered the very first day I could. I believe this has been the case for the past several years.

Part of registering early was that it made me commit to doing it very early on. That has helped immeasurably when it came to my training.

Congratulations to you for wanting to join in all this fun! I will guarantee you that you will be more than ready if you begin your training. It is all about putting in the steps and building a base then training according to schedule as it gets closer.

Come over to the weekly half marathon/marathon thread and get some great info. All are welcome. We love to hear from everyone. There are people there who will be participating in 2007 with you.

I'm planning on signing up for 2007 also. I wanted to do 2006, but being as out of shape as I was and having my training derailed by the extended time schedule of our move, I was not able to get ready for 2006. However, I am very much looking forward to 2007! I'm glad to hear that there will be other WISHERS committing to the 2007 event, as I will need all the support I can get just to get my pace to the point where I won't be swept!
