Marathon Weekend 2025

[supersnoop]

I've got 225xx with a POT that should put me in C (it put me in C for the Wine & Dine Challenge).

Why just the winter?

Buffalo in the winter:

 

[HubbsRunsDis]

223xx with a 2:15 half POT, hoping that is C, that is what we were anticipating....

Ugh! I thought we were on track to leave early afternoon today but I guess not!
My son is at Dr with DH because he has some nasty head cold and I’m at vet with one of my dogs with upset tummy. Was supposed to drop him off with my sister this am for the trip but wanted to have him checked out.

Sister just said it sounds like the start of a Griswold family vacation

 

[runwithperseverence7]

Also just checked looks like my bibs are 21xxx.
POT 4:16 full

 

[fatmanatee]

212xx Dopey with 2:02 half POT, so things seem to be lining up with CrD and 2:00-2:15/4:00-4:30 paired in B.

Also, I don't know if there's any correlation to your POT and bib #? I actually kind of assumed that if anything, it correlates to registration time. There were a few times I've registered kinda late for non-RD races and it felt like I'd get really high bib numbers every time.

278xx

we registered for the Dopey Challenge in July, well after the anticipated times were due and rushed through the registration to make sure we got it, so I ended up with 6:30 - 7:00 for Marathon time and 10-12 minute pace. I think my wife put in a shorter marathon time, she has 270xx

 

[FFigawi]

205xx with 1:49 PoT

 

[ZM73]

First time Dopeyer. HM POT 1:57:53 - Bib 215xx

 

[Zurezo]

104xx with a 1:48:00 POT Half

I think bib numbers are correlated to POT or estimated finish - and placement into corrals. However, I think the speculation is that if you register late, your bib number may be out of order and a high number and may not fit into the normal corral placement sequence. It may not automatically mean the last corral.

IF you have a POT (and signed up on registration day; not sure about later registrations), bibs are in order of time (i.e. faster POTs have lower bib numbers within the corral). I don't know how they assign numbers without POT.

Interesting, at the same time, that would mean I should have a higher bib # (larger number, I should say) than @ZM73, who has a better POT than me. @ZM73, did you register on day one or later?

202xx Dopey with 1:39 POT

 

[GuinnessRunner]

My Photopass spots are still blank, but at least I have the blanks now which is an improvement from this morning. I assume like most things for MW, since there are so few of us doing Goofy, we are low on the priority list for them.

Not quite true. We actually can see the grass right now.

That being said, in answer to the question "why just the winter?," it because flight issues tend to cascade quicker in the winter.

 

[PrincessV]

Still no PP code for half-only here. How come we’re left out of all the fun AND are the only ones with rain in our forecast?! Always the bridesmaid, or something like that.

 

[Ellie_]

Any Goofy runners still missing theirs? Neither the half nor the full have loaded for me.

Last year's half of half is why I might never do a half without doing at least one other race again.

But it does seem like the half is being picked on - still stalking the rD page for my DS bib number.
