Official 2013 Disneyland Dumbo Double Dare, Half Marathon, 10k, and 5k Thread!

I love the big D but the 5 medal is special to me because it was my first Disney race. I missed out on the castle medals.

It's funny you mentioned the castle medals. I was rearranging my medal hanger this weekend and was looking at those. Which one do you prefer ~ the castle or the D? As much as I like the D, I think more b/c of the retro-Disney of it all, I kinda like the castle one better.

I'll be happy with either a castle or a big D! I'm sure the castle looks cool though.

I'll always think my first one is special too, 2008 Donald.

I love the castle but I don't have one. The 5th anniversary was my first. I have that one and 2-Ds. I'm hoping I can keep going at least to year 10 to get a new style. I also would live to be Tink Legacy.

OMG!!!! That is great!! C'mon Colleen. Where are you staying????

Yay Meredith!! I'm still trying to figure things out Cindy. Want to ask the lawyer if I run up the credit card bill, is DH ( and that is not darling husband, think ____ head ) responsible for it regardless of what it is for? If so I'll be coming and doing Dopey too! Told him I would screw him in the end!

Maybe stay with Nicki, if she'll have me. Then have to figure out how to not take the kids, or come up with a lot of $$$ and bring them. Without DH I could probably squeeze us all in one room.

I think the trip would definitely be A LOT more fun with out the kids! Gotta hang with my princess peeps!

Hey there! Run up that cc bill. Ditch the kids! LOL tell them you'll take them to WDW next year. Not sure where Meredith is staying. Told Nicki that I neeeeeed to see Trader Sams. Reminds me of the Poly, but sadly, no Walter. You can do this, my friend!

Hi!

found this part of the site only this week, years after lurking/posting/revisiting all the DL threads and the Disney Cruise threads...

Signed up for the 10K in Disneyland day registration opened....hesitated too long about the DDD...oops.

Then, I talked, nagged, threatened, cajoled two of my five adult children into joining me....lol They are also running (walking) the 10K to support their mom (see how I work.....it's all about "support".)

Now, I am working on two others to join me in WDW for the Dopey Challenge, but that is a bigger plot.

Anyway, we are at the Best Western Park Place Inn Suites from 8/28-9/3 with other family members arriving on 29th and others on 30th. Will be a pack of 8 at least. (3 adult kids, 1 significant other of a kid, 3 grandchildren, all approx. age 6.).

hope to meet up with some other DISer's while there!

That's where I'm staying! But I'm only there from Fri through Sun night.

Not sure if there's a glitch on the Active.com site, but it says there are slots for the 1/2, 10K and DDD.

Can you link it? I can't find it.

I think this might be what was seen... I pulled the link as my FB group is reporting that races other then the kids are requiring a password to complete the process, remember this page came up for people and the races sold out as they were filling in their data in January, and they ended up not being able to actually finish registering. This is still active on active.com but RD pulled the links when the races filled up.

I clicked on each race and only the 5k, which I missed out on, has a red FULL tag on the next page. Interesting...

I was able to register 4 kids 7-8 yr old. Wonder if they will honor them.

Hi Nicki, I'm pretty sure I did get your email. My brain has been so boggled lately. And I've been really back logged on checking my email. I'll catch up with you in a few days. I tried to take a day off on thursday and got next to nothing done that I wanted to cuz other stuff just kept coming up. Like puking kids!
