Official Glass Slipper Challenge Thread

[niclodn]

Woo-HOO, I'm in for the Glass Slipper!

Have to admit that in my excitement, I clicked on the GSC AP link before reading the instructions, so I ended up spending some very frustrating minutes trying to figure out the password. A few inappropriate words were said. Once I figured it out, I was so relieved that I forgot about trying for the Visa discount, but whatever, I have my confirmation, so it's all good!

Can't wait for Princess 2014!!

Did I miss something? I was never asked for a password

I have a question about the race retreat. I did not register for it as I don't have the $$ for it right now, but hope to add it later. My question is will there be a retreat for both the 10K and the half? My understanding was that it would only be for the half. If that's the case, then the GSC RR is a rip off -- its $185 whereas its only $120 for the half. Unless I missed something and there is some additional benefit for GSC participants I did email runDisney about it, but I don't expect a response back anytime soon.

When I signed into active from the AP holder link, it asked for a PW during registration. It was in the AP link in the text, I just didn't bother to read it through first.

I'm registered! Not my first Half, but my first Princess race! Can't wait!

Yeah, I never got that. Weird.

Well, I'm in. Why? Who knows! I guess I won't rest til I have medals from each of the races (forget Dopey--my marathon days are past). So I signed up for GSC.

Ah Disney. My love/hate relationship with you continues! Better set up the air fare alert now.

Cripey, I've heard of someone else that paid 288 for both tink and phm. Got a twofer! Interesting to see if it shows up as registered!

What does twofer?

 

[longhorns2]

As if there'd ever been any doubt!


Interesting... I started the process at 11:56 and likely had my Visa code entered before 12; I waited until 12 to send it through and did get the $15 off.

Yall need to read PrincessVs blog. It's a good one!

I didn't either. Not stressing over it. I have AP and Disney Visa.

Aw, thanks for the plug! I was actually planning to stop back here and say - I heart the DIS. This is such an amazingly supportive, drama-in-all-the-RIGHT-ways group!

Glad I wasn't the only one

Oh V, we heart you, too. After all, we are all a bunch of RunD enablers! LOL

Love your post! I cried. I love when athletes (or anyone in the spotlight) gets attention for positive actions.

Congrats to everyone who was able to register today! Hopefully I'll be joining all of you before too long!

So 6.5 hours later I've gone from elated I was able to register for the GSC to "Oh my God what have I done?" I assume this is a fairly normal response for a first timer? I know I have enough of a fitness and short run base that I can get it done with training, but darn if it does not seem a bit more daunting now that it is real

Congratulations to all that signed up today! Hopefully on the 11th I can officially say I will be joining you all...

For those already signed up...what are the extra commemorative items that were being offered... need to know how much extra of my paycheck I need to hold! The challenge looked to be $288 when all is said and done but what about pins, car magnets? I love the idea of items that commemorate the inaugural race. Any must haves that princesses regretted not getting last year that we should prepay for?

 

[MRS AR]

It took all day and a great cast member but I AM IN. Yea!!!

As an FYI (and not to start any flame wars), the registration was not just restricted to AP/DVC/Disney Visa holders. Anyone can register. So no waiting til the 11th is necessary.
