Marathon Weekend 2023

[lookingforsunshine]

Can someone please remind me why I'm putting myself through this?

To feel more stress about a thousand other things potentially going wrong leading up to race day? I'm wondering myself.

Bling.

Fancy medals and bragging rights?

I'd feel a lot better if we were seeing some screens update with wait times. Have a bad feeling we're still in "scrap it and try again another day" territory.

To run through the castle. It's all about the castle (and Main Street) for me.

YES!! I cried during the princess running through it, man that was everything to me.

If they didn't scrap it how long would you wait?

I'm influencing the influencers-- one of the runDisney influencers posted my question about why the website was down (wrong answers only) on her instagram stories lol (I also posted it in her facebook group). She got some funny answers... my favorite was "someone talked about Bruno."

Agreed. I've got a bad feeling about 3pm today. Because I've got a meeting then, obviously.

I waited 4 hours the other month to try to talk to Disney on the phone then gave up.

The event page is still just the dwarves after a brief moment where it worked, so I don't think you're wrong. I'm just wondering how long they'll keep telling us to remain in queue before rescheduling this whole thing

So, after having a required in-person meeting for the last hour and a half (and deciding I was not participating in MW 2023 since I wouldn't be able to register), you all are saying I still have a chance?

I plan on hanging in here until work pulls me into something critical. Every few minutes that pass some folks will give up, increasing the odds for the patient.

I told by a very wise person that it is totally acceptable to cry while running down Main Street.

Same here. Turning onto Main Street with all the spectators is my favorite part. I started crying a little bit this year because I am pregnant and thought it would be my last Dopey for awhile, but alas, here I am hoping I don't go into labor before registration opens.

So much for going out to lunch today. May have to have some food delivered to the office.
