Official 2015 Disney Marathon Thread

[DMMarla07860]

I estimated a 15 minute mile for DS and my 5K, and we were either last or second to last corral. I really really would recommend that no matter what corral you're in, be there in time to be at the FRONT. It just makes so much difference.

I'll be there in time for sure, for everything I usually try to get there early. I'm picked the second to last minute mile so I think it was 11-13? Whatever it was I think by January I'll be able to do it, I already walk super fast, when in better shape I think I'll go faster for sure. Just wasn't sure how it worked. Figured prob last of corrals

Hi Amanda!!! Are you registered for Marathon Weekend?

Yes. I'm running Dopey. Younger 2 children are joining me for 5K and older child and DH are joining me for 10K.

Hmm... so was anyone else convinced they weren't doing it, started reading the posts, talked to the spouse, and is now registered for their first full and the spouse is registered for the 1/2???

Because if so, I've now joined the club!

Oh well. Come what may, I'm very hopeful it will be a fun experience.

I registered myself, DH, mom & dad for the 5k all by 12:45 yesterday--have 2br villa, babysitter and dog sitter booked. Whoohoo!!! So excited for our first runDisney event on our first extended family trip to Disney! What an awesome souvenir of the experience that 5k medal will be!!! I plan to pick all of your brains about all the details along the way. I signed our twins up for the 100 meter too and caved and got them mouse ears.

Do the diaper dashes sell out too? We'll have a 6 mo old by then but I won't know if he's crawling for a while obviously, and he hasn't actually been born yet so I hate to book that

Ack! I'm registered for my first full marathon!! So excited-- I've done PHM/GSC and I can't wait to experience marathon weekend!!

 

[DMMarla07860]

Is there a way to look up what estimated time you picked for 5k? Just wondering

 

[sabrinalovesdisney]

I signed up for the Dopey. My husband is doing some of the races as well. I'm so nervous. This will be my first marathon also. Training begins today

Bars have officially been updated and 1/2 now showing as sold out. Marathon is still sticking at 50 percent which is a bit surprising I thought it would have gone up some overnight.

Anyways I'm officially registered for the marathon. First marathon in 3 years. Wow it's been a long time coming.

Did you notice the disclaimer:

Events may sellout before percentages can be updated.

I'm wondering if people were making it through the sign up process before being informed that an event was sold out?

No, here they are talking about percentages on the main rundisney.com site. If you get through registration, you are registered.

DH & I are doing the full. I've really fallen off the running/exercise wagon, so I'm excited to get back on and start training!

Now to decide on where to stay...

Registered for the half yesterday with DH. We got confirmation emails but when we click on the link it says ATTENTION! You are not authorized to view this registration.
Anyone else have this problem?

I've requested my registration twice, and I am unable to view it. I can see my receipt though, so I'm figuring that everything is okay...

 

[ksueboo]

That's what I am hoping too. Of course when I went to print my payment receipt my printer ink was low so it's a terrible copy!

Active.com is notoriously temperamental about viewing confirmation through those links. Don't worry about it too much.

This. As long as you have a confirmation number you should be golden.

Especially with registration being so crazy right now I wouldn't expect to be able to view your information online just yet. Maybe you can email and ask if you are really nervous about it?
