Not Quite yet....Waivers Are Up for Marathon weekend

[TnTsParty]

Apparently the waivers have data errors and they really aren't up - Hope they fix my numbers because I didn't like the ones I was given

Cool, the final instructions are up, also.

Bib Numbers 5548 – Full and 23866 for the Half

GUESSING it puts me in third corral of the full and second for the half – it all depends on the corral splits

As a pay it forward effort I try to honor those who fought the fight under the same bib in previous races…. I promise to those who carried my colors before me to fight the good fight, to give everything that I have for the day of the race and to leave the bib in good condition so it can live on to run another race.

So thank you to A Frederick, a fellow Texan who carried the bib in 2010 to a finish of 4:57:23; to B Box from Alabama who in 2009 finished in 4:41:17; to T Brush from Georgia finishing 2008 in 4:20:00; T Dasinger again from Alabama finishing the Sahara-like 2007 event in 5:36:44

Honoring the half runners is a little harder since the starting number has varied from year to year. But D Delamter of Georgia carried 33866 to a 1:44:30 finish in 2010; J Fridman of Deleware carried the same bib to a 2:15:52 finish in 2009; and S Washburn of Virginia carried the exact bib to a 2:12:45 in 2007

Amazingly, all finishers under this number are male.

For some reason, I always cry a little when I get my bib number... It's the same kind of crying I do when I see the castle for the first time on a trip to WDW or when I'm checking in at the Poly (my kids still make fun of me for that one...)

Anyway, I have bib # 8298 for the Full. Any idea where that puts me???

GUESSING D or E,


For all who read I assume 2,000 per corral. It has been as many as 2500-3000 per corral. Soe as an inital guess, one could divide a bib number by 2000 and 2500 to get a guess. In REALITY, the RD actually uses a cutoff time to fill the corrals. The time cuts are made to fill a corral with the numbers ranges listed.

This may be a dumb question, but do I have to print my waiver to see my bib #? I clicked print but nothing happens

Quick question- just checked out mine and my dad's waivers. All 3 have us down for XS instead of XL for the shirts. Should I call Trackshack to change or the Marathon site. We did paper reg at an expo, so it just got input wrong. Thanks!!

 

[KatieLovesMickey]

Thanks, Charles!
Only a month to go!!!

 

[deleckidesign]

Also, my husband's doesn't show up at all...and we signed up at the same time!

My shirt says XS too, which I am not. I hope it's just something they put on all the papers. I'm doing the half and my bib # is 38165. I didn't submit a qualifiying time so I assume I'm in the back Which is fine with me my goal is to just finish

One of the quirky WDWM issues is that you must hit print AND have Acrobat Reader on your machine. When you hit print the Acrobat form will pop up as a preview and then you hit print.

If that does not work, PM me your Bday and name info and I will look it up.

I would CALL in the morning. There is a great chance they can correct the form this week and then you will have the correct size on the waiver. Otherwise you are at the mercey of the VoluntEar working the shirt table when you go through the Expo. Most will trade the half and full shirts, but sometimes you get a miscommunication.

You are mid-pack (8165) out of 18-20k. You must have put in 2:45-2:50 as a guestimate that does not require proof.

Well, it's definitely real now!!!!
For the half, I have 23369.
For the full, I have 5324.

I guess I won't be starting in the first corral, but, hopefully the 2nd. I'm soooo excited now. And, one day off my foot and my achilles is already feeling better!!!!!

I am betting we can talk pre-race strategy both mornings

Sounds like this is an overall issue with EVERYONE who ordered the XL shirts. I've read about this problem on several other discussion boards.

 

[Bephus]

I got nervous and excited when I saw this thread.
My numbers are:
Marathon - 5288
Half Marathon - 23331

Any guesses on where I will be, and should I bring my new PR of 1:52.33 for the half to try to move up in the corrals for the half?

 

[Tiger Lily 03]

It IS real now. I must get home to print and check.

Hoping everyone gets the shirt/registration issues figured out before getting there.

 

[FFigawi]

Here are my numbers:

Marathon - 3603
Half - 22336

Hope to see some of you before the start.

My work computer sucks....works great here at home.

My bib # 34534

Any idea what corral that might be?

 

[BACON]

32511-half
3014-5k though I don't think there will be any formal corrals in this event.

I put 2:41 as my half-marathon time when I registered. I posted that time in June of this year. In September, I was pace to run a 2:22. Should I try to move up, or stay with the original time?

 

[verticalchaos]

#33243 here for the half!

Another "oops" question. They list my sister's birth date as mine - date yes, year no, but they have us as twins. Should I tell her to call today to fix hers?
