News and Developments for Future In-Person runDisney Events

On the flip side there will be a lot of AP-holders who maintained their APs through all the upheaval upset if that benefit is dropped. I know I would be.

Yup. I'm one of those people. We kept our annual pass through the pandemic. We also drank the kool-aid and bought into DVC during the pandemic as well, so I'm hoping at least one of those will work for early reg.

Yep! I've kept my AP through everything and am about to renew it in the next week or so. I would definitely be disappointed if they took that perk away

Also curious if they will still have charity partners. I would expect so, but not sure if that adds an element of complexity (in having to work with those groups) that there isn't time for this year.

I have been raising money for Dopey for 10 months so I really hope so! I signed up with them this time last year.... I will be crushed if they refuse to give my charity bibs

Same….
Though my first live Disney race back probably will either be the April SW replacement, W&D 2022 or Marathon 2023

In my ever turning emotions on this subject (wait 15 minutes and they will change again I'm, sure...), I'm starting to wonder if Princess will be the first in person event back. The two cryptic messages they posted would make sense from a Cinderella perspective ("A dream is a wish..") and gives them a little more time to get everything set up. Would certainly be glad just to get in-person events going again, but it's not a race weekend I would usually do.

I just bought DVC so they better keep us being able to get in early with that... since I cannot buy a AP yet

If they’re able to host a massive D23 event in November they shouldn’t have any issues hosting MW in January.

If you go to register.rundisney.com it says "down for maintenance"... I don't know if that was what it was saying before, but I thought it was just a dead/hidden page so maybe it's a good sign!

Stitch has been eating registration.rundisney.com for a while, so that's not really a precursor

Party pooper! Just kidding - kind of...

 

[Barca33Runner]

Dang. Saw all the added pages this morning and figured something must have happened.

 

[sandam1]

In a fit of optimism (and since I had some Kohls cash that was expiring), I bought a bunch of new running shorts and capris last night (no long pants which ensures that the race temps will be stupid cold). At this pace, I will have every piece of equipment that I need to run Dopey except for the actual race registration.

 

[PrincessV]

Yep, same Stich as it's been for a while at registration.rundisney.com. Sorry folks.
(IDK about the "register.rundisney.com - I've never seen that one before.)

Anxiously awaiting an announcement with the rest you! I have our hotels booked. Planning to fly solo until after the race when my husband will fly down for a few days. Using the marathon as an excuse to get a long overdue break from my kids so it needs to happen!!

my interest in RunDisney and racecations was largely sparked by a desire to get away from my kids for a weekend
