Official Wine and Dine 2016 thread

Anyone know if I'll have to sit through this little green walker AGAIN to register for a 2nd race?!?!

I didn't have to. Let me straight through for the second.

Ah...shoot. I messed up hubby's birthdate (put the wrong year). Anyone know how to correct that?

In my Active Account where it lists the races I am registered for it has an Edit Registration link. You might want to try that.

I'm in the 10k. I had 3 computers logged in and I'm still a nervous wreck.

Challenge on hold.

 

[Ariel484]

How is the half on hold before the challenge?! Really shocked by that!

The 10K, 1/2 and Lumiere's Challenge all On Hold already!!!

 

[AThrillingChase]

UGH. Is anyone UNDECIDED on what race they are doing?!! I was all set to pump myself up for a night race, and then they added the challenge! I'm not so sure I want to do the challenge, other than desperately wanting both medals. LOL. DS6 doesn't want to do the 5K, so I'm signing him up for the 1 mile kids' race. DS9 wants to do the 5K with me, so that's $170 right there for the 3 of us. Bugger.

Someone help me make a decision! LOL.

P.S. We are locals, so I have no plane tickets or hotel restrictions to worry about.

in for the half, i wasnt impressed with this challenge.

I got in for the half - I have decided the dark side challenge is my go to challenge each year from here on out. And it sounds like these two are the same courses, or at least very similar. Hopefully I don't regret that, but, I guess I am still just feeling a little beat down by this race and the changes. At least this way, I won't have to go to bed early two nights in a row and can spend more time at the fest??

Challenge is on hold.

 

[Ariel484]

Everything's open!

 

[WatchMeFly]

Here's the direct to Active Challenge link ... if rD dies in the next few minutes .. good luck to everyone!

Looks like it's correct now.

THANK YOU for posting this link!!! Not sure I would have gotten in otherwise- the rundisney site was loading very inconsistently for me!

So excited!! This is my first half and I CAN'T WAIT!! (I'm a little hyped up from the registration anticipation haha)

 

[Ariel484]

Everything's open!

And back on hold. Keep refreshing!

 

[RogueKnits]

Go to his Active.com account and Edit his registration?

Thanks, I saw that after I posted and have done so. It's not showing up as changed yet, but I assume the system is a bit overwhelmed right now.

 

[AThrillingChase]

Thank you very much; hadn't thought of that. Looks like we only have IE on the computer right now, and even though I've used Firefox and Chrome at work, I'm hesitant to try to start a download this close to "go time".

Though I did just figure out how to do a screen shot on our home pc. Screen shots helped AThrillingChase make their case to runDisney last year, if I recall correctly. Starting to lay out notes, etc. in front of me. DW has moved her appointment into the afternoon, so she can be there as my sous chef.

You remember correctly - if anyone has trouble with registration (like tech trouble) - screen shot the heck out of that screen! Though, I think I already got my allotment of beating RD once

Lumiere's Challenge now open again.

 

[madduck]

just tried at 12:21. said i could register for 10k and lumieres but half is on hold

 

[Ariel484]

5K on hold

 

[This is Pickles]

So I'm guessing crossing the finish line is even more exciting, but for the moment I'm feeling a pretty big thrill just from getting two kids and me registered (2 challenges, and a 10K only for the 13.8 years-old-by-then kid). Thanks to all the previous posters for explaining this crazy process....I found the info I needed last night but I guess I was so tired I saved it incorrectly so this morning I was frantically searching for Ariel's avatar on page after page to find that darn link! Thrilled about gearing up for my first Disney races!
