Official Wine and Dine Half Marathon Weekend 2019

Someone come pack for me. Thanks.

If you set up my sub plans for my Friday classes, deal!

I just finished my 10k costume and I'm so relieved. I realized a week ago that the Aracuan Bird costume I had been planning wasn't going to work and I was able to make a quick shift to Mad Madem Mim. Lol, I head to Disney on Wednesday, so I was running out of time.

So I was hoping to barter my after party ticket for a couple rounds for my wife and I at the HH meet up but there is just no way to guarantee I’ll be there. I am planning on the expo for 10AM Thursday so if anyone looking for a ticket wants to meet up there I can save you fifty bucks.

I have my refillable beer cup from the finish at marathon weekend. I think it was ~$16 for the first beer and $8 for the second. I am considering packing it in my gear check bag on Sunday morning. Thoughts?

It's a deal if you finish my next 3 days of work for me!

I'm busy NOT doing any work while I obsess over organizing my packing list because I'd rather be at home packing....where are those cute little mice who do my tasks?

That's what I'm doing. I think we can use it at the Expo too!

I hadn't even thought about the expo!

I tried my orange cup from 2016 W&D last year and they would not accept it (although they did in 2017). I now have an orange and a clear (opaque?) cup to bring with me, and I hope one is accepted.

What color(s) do you have?

They introduced a new one January 2019 and I was able to use it this past April. It looks like the one in the photo I just posted.

Mine was clear (ish?). I figure DH got the refill value out of it waiting for me to finish, but I'd feel so good using it again!

I am more happy about this than the Fairytale blue beer that I had to try knowing I was not going to like it.

I believe I have the clear (Pictured above), Burgundy, Pink and blue. I think I will pack the clear since that seems like the one they have been using lately.

Check what cup they are using at the expo - it will be the same for the finish area. Last year they changed the cup and removed the ESPN logo. The finish line area was hit or miss on taking an old cup for Princess and Star Wars - some accepted and others said nope. Best bet is to buy one at Expo and keep that for the finish but YMMV with older cups. They have only had the clear ones for the last two years.

We have repacked our cups from the last few races and they were the same...Only once did we have a change in style and they did not accept them... so bottom line, depends if the design has changed or not. Worth packing to try for sure.

Explain more about this refillable beer cup. Are you able to use it anywhere or just certain places?

It’s only to be used at the expo and post race areas.

Gotcha.... Thanks!

Do you guys know if they do a security check on the bags for people coming to the finish line to meet racers? My sister was hoping to meet me with some champagne to celebrate, but doesn't want to bring it if it will get confiscated.

Regarding the cups, I had to buy a new one last year, one cast member accepted the old one, but told me that they changed cups and not everyone would accept the old ones.
