If you look in your MDE at pictures near Everest, you should be able to get a pretty close time as to when you reached the Everest area. For example, I have a picture taken at 8:25 when I was running under the prayer flags. This was shortly after the picture stop with Carl and Dug. The time that you reach this spot will depend upon how fast you're running, the number of characters you stop for pictures and the length of time for each line. I could be wrong, but I believe that the wait times are going to be longer than last year because you can now hug the characters again rather than standing in a designated spot.Hi. I'm mostly a lurker but the boards have been super helpful to me with all the information and experience people have to offer here! I have a question/advice for folks here about Everest timing. I completed my first Full at Disney last January and will be completing my second at Marathon weekend this year. I really want to ride Everest but I'm trying to figure out what the timing looks like. Last year, I started at around 5:15 AM and hit the 20 mile split in 3:46. Everest is around the 17 mile marker , correct? My training has been going well and I'm hoping to improve this year, but I'm also desperate to ride Everest mid race. I guess what I'm asking is what's the fastest you can be and still make it to AK when Everest starts running? (Not that I think I'll be THAT fast lol, but I'm just trying to gauge if doing some character stops between MK and AK might actually help me time Everest better?) Hopefully, this makes sense. Any advice is welcome!
