**Official** Star Wars at DHS, Galactic Spectacular Dessert Party/Galactic Nights/Launch Bay/JT

[yulilin3]

I'd really like to do the run, I did the DL one in January. However, I take too many trips as is and if it comes down to a sww trip or this race I'll have to choose sww.

I'm still desperately looking for employment in Orlando, so maybe I can eventually move there and do all the events.

even living here it gets expensive cause they are so addictive. I've done the Princess 5K, Tower of Terror Inaugural 10 Miler, Princess Half Marathon, Expedition Everest Challenge and the Inaugural Minnie 10K (in that order) and then I just couldn't continue.
The Wine and Dine is on my bucket list but a SW race is a must do for me...anyone interested in buying my SW glow cubes, I have all three

Hey we were at that tot 10 miler together!

I'm doing wine and dine this year, you should come and enjoy the after party!

Ooh that is an exclusive set of glow cubes.. I'd say worth at least $500 and that's a steal!

How awesome of you! You'll have to let me know if you get chosen and where you'll be so I can drag my sorry, tired Jose costumed butt to get some water or perhaps even my medal from you.

That's Jose from the 3 caballeros, BTW. Which I've heard in the past that they've been together at the after party. Keeping my fingers crossed.

I saw this on the disney parks and saw a comment from Yulady from FL. My first thought was someone has your name, then realized it was probably you.

I'm excited for this. I've always wanted to do a Disney run. I absolutely hate running but I somehow seem to do just fine going long distances at high speeds with few breaks while at Disney. Have the actual dates for each race been announced? I could only run on Saturday or Sunday and am more interested in the 5K or 10K, not the half. (I think I can prepare for a 5 or 10K by April, not sure about going from 0.0 to 13.1, though).

I love Los Tres Caballeros!! My son watched the heck out of that movie. I'll let you know

WHAT?!?!? There's another Yulady out there? Yeah that was me
Yeah go to the Run Disney site and they have all the information, including prices
Friday is the 5K, Saturday the 10K and Sunday the half. I run/walk and use the Galloway method that the only way I could do all the races I've done, plenty of people use this method so don't worry about walking for a minute and then running for a minute, just stay on the sides and put your fist up when you have to start walking and you're fine.

"Force Friday" September 4th...anyone planning on going to Toys R Us that night?
http://www.cleveland.com/entertainment/index.ssf/2015/08/hasbro_unveils_star_wars_the_f.html

I have been thinking about it. I really wish it was bumped back a day...Friday into Saturday morning, so ODS could go with me. As it is, I can't justify letting him miss school on that Friday because I took him to TRU at midnight lol. I might go alone, still debating.

I keep debating whether to go to Toys R Us, Walmart or Target that night.

I had no idea they were doing events, too. Thanks for sharing the link because a nearby Target is participating!

Oh noes! A friend and I have been talking about doing a DL race in 2017. I told her I didn't care which. Obviously now it has to be SW, so I can do both and get a sweet c2c medal.

I got to meet the 3 Caballeros at DCA last December - they were AWESOME!

 

[AThrillingChase]

So excited for the dark side race! I think I am biting the bullet and forking over the $$ to do the dark side challenge. I usually do the half marathon, but I have been wanting to do a challenge and what better way than to do the inaugural dark side challenge? Sadly, I do not think my credit card shares my excitement.

I did a quick scan of the thread and I didn't see anything on this. But it looks like SWW will be back summer 2016

Was the WDW website actually updated? I know it has listed SWW 2016 for a while. I can't remember what had already been up.

 

[slaveone]

Hmm maybe I'll do lightweight armor and do the 10k. Wonder if any troopers are going to run it in their kit?

no it hasn't been updated, the same Summer 2016

 

[soniam]

no it hasn't been updated, the same Summer 2016

So, we still don't know if SWW is happening next year, right?

If the WDW twitter site said yes and it's on the WDW regular site I'm going to say it's a GO for SWW 2016

 

[yulilin3]

the same misunderstanding about the timeframe happened last year, remember that it said Summer 2015 but ended being the same May/June, I guess for Disney Summer isn't the season but when it gets hot here

Yah!!!!!!!!!

May is summer to me, but I live in Dante's Inferno, aka Texas
