Is anybody here signed up for the 10k on Saturday morning? I will be doing that, and was trying to think of some costume ideas. I am a male, but I'd love to hear what everybody else has planned in terms of costumes for the whole weekend!
For the 5k, I'm going as Mr. Smee, for the 10k, Vanellope from Wreck-it Ralph and for the 1/2 Captain Hook. For the guys that I've seen running the race, they either fully embrace the Tink, wings tutu and all (love that) or the go Captain Hook. Are you running w/ someone? Can't remember if it was last year or the year before but there were 2 girls one was dressed up as Pan and her friend was Pan's shadow. That was the best costume I've seen so far.
My son and I are running the 10K on Saturday morning. What happens AFTER the race? Is there breakfast? Food? Party? Music?
The RunDisney site doesn't really say.
We did Expedition Everest Challenge at WDW last May and after the race there was the after-race party at Animal Kingdom. Immediately after the race though I remember there being snack-foods like bananas & Cliff bars, of course water & chocolate milk. I'm assuming probably something like that at Tinkerbell?
It's like EE like you mentioned. They might have a DJ going, but don't think they did in Aug last year. But I also didn't stick around that long. There was a breakfast last year or the year before, but you had to buy tix and it was kinda pricey.
Here's my take- go with him anyway! I know you can't run, but the 5Ks are VERY lenient on time. I've never heard of a sweep at the 5K- it's all inside the park. I ran a 5K at WDW in 56 min in 2011 and never saw a sweeper or anything.
You could start it with him, and if he wants to go ahead of you, let him go once he's comfortable! Meet at the end.
2nd this!! Like Patty mentioned w/ the lenient time, last year when I crossed the finish line at the 52 minute clock time took some pics of World of Color and meandered out taking my time getting my medal and food box they hand out. I was getting towards the front entrance of DCA about 15-20 min. later and there were a lot of people still running and the point I saw them was just after the 2 mile mark. As long as you're moving you're good.
