Marathon Weekend 2017!

[experiment_6two6]

@MrsMcKenzie and @Ariel484 THANK YOU! I was so nervous I wouldn't be able to do it. All registered!!

Shoot, I just realized I registered with a nickname (shortened version of my middle name) and they require a photo ID for packet pickup. Will I run into problems??

 

[Diskidatheart]

I'm in for Dopey 2017 and my DW is in for the Half. We're going to run it together, which always makes it more enjoyable!

Aaaaaand.... 10K back on hold

 

[theme_park_mom]

Just got in for the 10K! My first Run Disney event! I am so excited!
do I need to send proof of time for the 10K? or is that only for the half?

 

[DOOM1001]

In for my 5th Disney full,knowing I didn't have to worry about it selling out I even put in my POT info.Having run my fastest half this year let's see if I can get into the early corrals.

Go into your account and edit your name.

We've never had a problem with that. My husband goes by his middle name.

half and longer only. 10K is anticipated pace.

Will we be able to add Race Retreat later? I know it past years you could add it after but I'm not seeing it as a stand alone option on the registration page.

I had 2 browsers open, got DD26 in one then I tried registering on the 2nd browser and got the little green man window. Went back to the first browser, signed her out of active and me in, clicked the link on runDisney and it put me right in. Weird cuz I was signed into active on the other browser and my little man was only 1/4 of the way across. Registered and closed the other browser.

Hi! I am registering someone else but forgot to get their address, can I just change it later?

I don't think the address matters. I registered my brother for the half marathon using his active account and he still has my parents address, not his current one that he's been living at for the past 3 years. As long as the name (and maybe birthday) matches your friend should be fine. Your friend can also go into their active.com account and update their address if they go to "manage registration" and then "edit registration information"

10K open again.

I'm not sure why I'm obsessively checking this.

Because I feel like my race registration behavior is a little less crazy if these races actually sell out quickly as I think they will.

 

[HockeyMomR]

Hooray!! 5k and 10k for me and 5k and half for DS24!!

Thank you all for your registration advice!

 

[mr incredibleS1]

We're in! My wife & daughter are in for the 5k, and I'm in for the Dopey! What an expensive morning...Registration was a lot easier than I thought it would be. I was planning on being in front of the computer(s) all afternoon!

 

[bellanotte10]

Yay! Boyfriend in for goofy. He went silent around 1140 and thought he'd get stuck in a meeting. I was getting super worried....

 

[bellanotte10]

I did it! I used three laptops at once to register myself, my sister, and my cousin for the 10K, and then myself for the Half. I know I am literally insane for triple-screening race registration. I'm thankful my cats didn't decide it was playtime all over the keyboards, as they've made a habit of doing.

I couldn't have done it without everyone's advice here. Thanks again for the guidance!

Did that for San Diego comic con, but we had 4 at the start then one crashed.

5K and 10K both on hold 23 minutes in.

EDIT - posted on prior page.

 

[Barca33Runner]

In for my 4th Dopey. Sister is in for her 4th Dopey. Mom is in for 3rd 5K and 10K. Dad in for his 1st 5K and 10K. Cousin in for her second Half Marathon. Aunt in for her first race of any kind (not sure what she signed up for Edit: 5K and 10K). No hassles registering for anyone.

Pretty successful day for runDisney.

How are you checking this? They usually have bars to tell you how filled the races are!
