Submitting times for coral placement

[NewRunner]

Good afternoon!

I have never run a race before, but have found a couple local 10k's in September. I am considering running one to get a better coral placement time at the Tinkerbell half. I have a question about what you need to submit. According to Run Disney, you need name of the race, location, time, distance, etc and you email it in. Does this need to be an official "form" from the race, or just what you type in the body of your email. How does Run Disney verify? I dont' want to send in the wrong info... Does it have to be from a certain race, or does any timed 10k or higher work?
TIA....you guys are AWESOME!!

In an email, send the info requested by runDisney. As an additional help for the folks at runDisney, add a link to the results page.

RunDisney says it must be from a "certified" race. This means certified for the distance. It can be from any certified race 10K or longer. When I supplied a race for the 2013 Marathon, I gave the info listed as required in the format they provide on the website, and also gave a link to the results page. I got an email a couple of days later saying my proof of time had been updated.

The results page said that the race was certified. Honestly, I don't know if they really check this, but that's what the proof of time requires. If there is a certified race available in your area, that's what I would run.

For the most part, races with chip timing are certified OR at one point in time were certified. It's worth looking for, but I would argue the point if the EMMI folks even caught it.
