Official 2017 Tinker Bell Half Marathon Weekend!

[MrsMcKenzie]

Do official shirts usually have anything on the backs or are they plain on the backs?

Typically just the logos of the sponsors.

Ok...swag below. There's a spoiler for Half and challenge runners, so don't look if you want to be surprised.

Spoiler: Swag

I'm not one to really care about the shirts but wow am I disappointed in these! The PDC one hurts my eyes. Great to have a neon shirt when running but WOW.

Don't like that the 5K shirt is white. What a random collection of colors. What were they thinking??

On the bright side - cinch bag for half runners!

My first runDisney event!!!! Oh em gee I am so stinkin excited to get there this afternoon!

 

[Ariel484]

As my fashion consultant I will wait for you to weigh in on how they look in person. I at least think I have a good shorts strategy to wear with the half shirt (they match Tink's wings) on sunday parkday.

Spoiler: Shirt

half is the best one, I think. Anything blue/green would look good!

I was hoping it was more "gray/purple...grayple" but glad you posted these in better light. I was planning on wearing almost the exact same color gray shorts thinking the shirt would be a color so I'm def packing my turquoise shorts now. I think the half is the best too...but this is the most random collection of colors ever! The 5k should be red cotton and the 10k should be blue. My humble opinion. BUT PURPLE CINCH BAG YAY!!!!

Impatiently waiting for the pre-order jacket to show up online somewhere. If anyone sees one in the wild feel free to take a creeper pic.

I sent my dd a text with the pic of the shirts and she is highly disappointed. She was so looking forward to wearing the PDC shirt but not any more, lol. That color is super bright. The half is the best one of the group.

Agree on all counts. Oh well.

Bib colors are great though, so...yay? Wish that has translated to the shirts.

My husband is doing the challenge, and while I don't think the shirt color is all that attractive, it will definitely be useful when he runs at night.

Very true! and the medals are awesome.

 

[TeresaMRoberts]

Hmm. Not sure what I think. I'm going to try to grab mine now, maybe I'll like them better in person.

I was thinking the same thing!

I just loaded onto the DisneyLand Express and headed to my hotel. Going to try and hit the expo after check in

Merch photos??

So are we sure about Pink C2C runners also getting the blue C2C medal? I saw someone in front of me get their bib and both a pink and blue wristbands.
When I got up there, I got the pink C2C wrist band and when I asked what the blue wrist band was for they said it was for those who did the Star Wars race??

On my way to the expo and I'd like to know!

 

[Ariel484]

Can't answer. I got blue and pink but did Princess and the marathon.

I just checked in and there were spots to initial for "pink" and "c2c" separately. I did princess and did not have a line to initial for c2c so only got the pink wristband. I did not go to runner relations but if I hear of someone being successful doing so, I'll try it!

 

[lurkergirl]

I was totally rolling my eyes at the shirts, @Ariel484... I ended up buying two more (just about a twenty minute wait, score!) at the Official Store to compensate.

I'm not there, but people in Facebook Groups said they went to Runner's Relations and got the blue if they had only been given the pink.
