I'm doing the 10k as well, maybe just go straight from the event to the starting corrals

If it was just me this is probably what I would do.

The boyfriend seemed incredibly grumpy about the late night/super early morning b and spending the extra money for the Friday party. He could have just been in a bad mood, I dunno.

BTW, we should meet up for pics before the 10k starts. Is your daughter running too?

My bf and I already have a plan. He is much faster than me so he is probably going to sprint ahead and get in good character lines. Then I'll plod up and get in line with him

And surprise, surprise....no follow-up to my posted Comments on the Blog yesterday. I'm stunned.

Anyone remember back on page 100 that we thought "it was really gonna happen today!" Good times, good times...

And here we are at 200, still with no helpful info from Disney!

she's not running, just me. We should meet before the race. Did you see the program guide is out? http://as2.wdpromedia.com/media/rundisney/star-wars-wdw-half-marathon/SWHM16_WDW_Program_Online.pdf

one silver lining...those who joined and posted here for the first time, have probably met the "10 post" rule and can now do private messaging - sorry, it's called conversations now.... So if you need to talk with another poster privately, say to coordinate a cancelled ADR for the dining package you now can! That's something anyway...eh?

Now I don't know what to do. I really want the Friday night exclusive event, but we have the 10k race in the morning and my bf doesn't seem very happy about going to the party the night before when we have to get up at 330 am. I can understand that. I just really wanted the Friday. Looks like I may aim for the Sunday. hmm.

That's a tough one but I wouldn't book it Friday night.

I wish I was running this weekend. I like those courses compared to marathon weekend.

But it's so exclusive and there's a lanyard.... (Hope you read that in your best whiny voice, because that's definitely how I intended it to be read). Haha.

I might ask for Friday availability when I call just to see, but I'm probably going to end up doing Sunday. Which sucks because I won't get to meet up with all the good people going Friday.

This thread got me to 10 and I was happy I could change my avatar.

This is getting ridiculous! Why cant they give us any information?

I watched illuminations before waking up for the 5k in January and that was ok because that race starts a little later but for the 10K I'd want to be in bed. That's just me though. I'm out the door to the bus by 3:10 for the early races. Either way I think you'll figure it out and have a good time.

"getting ridiculous?" I think it's been ridiculous for about 150 pages.....

@rteetz Any guesses when we might get some info on preview events?

Your guess is as good as mine right now. I'm surprised they haven't been announced already if they are still happening.

 

[MickeyMinnieMom]

The preview event on the 17th doesn't show yet on the calendar but it'll be the same as April 16th

@yulilin3, have you heard (outside of The Dibb) that there WILL be an event on Apr 17th? That's the one I'd hope for... after the Dark Side half...

 

[KMWoolley]

You can expect to see firm(ish) details posted on the Official Disney Blog some time in the next 4 weeks

You guys are killing me. I walk awAy for a hour and have 5 pages to go through.
