Medal reveal soon? It's October. Time for Disney to convince my credit card to scream a bit more.

It was October 18 last year, so you’ve probably got a couple weeks before the screaming CC

I honestly don't know how many virtual runs I have left in me right now. I *just* took my last few princess medals from THIS year out of the closet and hung them up yesterday.

Dressing as whomever you want: guy in the corral for SS 10k with his girlfriend (she was a lovely princess) was dressed as the Burger King Hamburgler. And was delighted that someone recognized his costume choice.

Somebody is headed to McDonald's jail...

Apparently sleep deprivation and my brain-power don't get along well. I'd go back and edit that post, but I think it should stay.

They just did cc challenge reveal today so…

Anyone know what percentage of people are going to be running as princesses vs other disney characters? I was thinking of doing Mike Wazowski and Celia using green and purple zinc sunblock and t shirts.

This exactly. Dress how you want (within the rules) and don't worry about what anyone else thinks. Jus tmake sure it's something you're going to be able to run/walk in.

Anyone know what happened to the Dooneys? We used to be able to pre-purchase those as well. Last few runs they haven't had them at all.

Just updated my race entry with a 1:54 half time. Corral A here I come!! Not really though because I'll be moving back to run with the wife. But it'll be nice to have A/A on the challenge bib

I could be wrong, but I believe that the Moana medal is a spinner.

I'm excited to see these in person. I like the non-traditional shapes.

The hot pink color choice seems odd on the Cinderella and Moana medals. And Cinderella is running in mid-air?

Decided to be fiscally responsible this year and skip the 5k. Now I'm having FOMO. Ha!

I guess I'll be stocking the RD site for pop up openings now.

Also I've been avoiding posting in the thread until now. I've been slacking since I did the marathon (barely) in January. I finished my first official week of training this week though, so I guess it's time to jump on the wagon.

Looks like you were off by just a week. Did they persuade your credit card to scream a bit more?

My rankings in order:

10K
5K
Challenge
Half

I like the virtual component of Princess because there's no way I can travel to Disney World in February, but I like having some motivation to exercise in February so virtual races fit the bill nicely for me. I really like the clock motifs on the challenge medal, but not enough to justify the virtual challenge for me. I was always leaning towards the virtual 10K, but held off in case the medal design for the challenge really blew me away.

It didn't so I went for the 10K only. I'm happy for everyone who loves the medals for the races they're doing.
