Official 2016 Princess Half Marathon Thread

This is just sad. I've always said that Disney IT was bad, but this is crazy. How professional for both to blame the other instead of just fixing the problem. RunDisney is really showing poor management here.

I forwarded them everything this morning - receipts from Active, RunDisney confirmation, everything. And the most recent response I got was asking me where I got these emails from. SRSLY? I got them from you, you buncha dummies! #FacePalm

TrackShack says its an RD Registration Team issue. RD Registration Team says its a TrackShack issue. I don't think they were super thrilled when I said that if my husband were to actually be in Florida for this weekend, it wouldn't be that big of a deal because I would just have him pick up the stuff, I'd take my picture with the items and just run with them knowing full well that I was in the clear.

What a cluster. I hope they get it all worked out for you soon!

Ooooh - now they're saying it's all Active's fault ... which, cool? Whatever. I'm sure it will get fixed eventually, but man it's frustrating.

Oh well. My husband can run. I'm sure he'll enjoy the ladies-cut shirts as noted on the waiver! Ha!
 
Also - for those of you asking about 5K corrals. The best tip I can give you is to google Princess 5k bibs and look at the images of bibs ... you kinda get an idea of where your bib number falls in the hierarchy of 5k corrals.
 
My running partner and I are officially in C! Glad to have this last piece of information I was waiting for.

@Keels I really hope they sort out your registration!

Oh, I'm sure they will. They're notoriously slow, so I just want to make sure I get it handled sooner rather than later.
But man - I wished my corral reflected a corral he would be placed in!!! :cool1:

Anyway, looks like I'm in A for the 5K and H for Glass Slipper (which a quick Google search estimates B or C for the 10k). I'll take it!
And, really, I would love it if my bib says Princess "Husband's Name".
 
ok, received bib #31957 for 10k, DS22 recevied bib# 32355. Anyone got any ideas what corrals we'll be in for the 10k run? You guys are good at finding this type of stuff out, and just technology inept.
 
Rather I'm technology inept. SEE!!! can't even type correctly on this darn thing
 
I ended up with D for the half as did my sister. I'm guessing B for myself the 10k, but looking at some images via Google, my sister may be A for the 10k.

5k is a bit weird to me. I put my regular 5k running pace (~9:45/mile) as an estimate, just in case my DD7 weren't doing it, I'd rather start sooner than later. But I put hers as what it should be. I figured I'd drop back. But, our bibs are a pretty high number and only 10 digits apart, so I'm thinking we both got C or even D. It's fine, I would drop back anyway, just another oddity.
