Tower of Terror 10 Miler 2014

[spideymike]

I'll be trying to get dining at Be Our Guest in a bit. We went there for lunch last year and was impressed. If I don't get in for Friday night or Sunday night, we'll find something else and we always love the Yak & Yeti. I know I need my Peanut Butter & Jelly milkshake from the 50s Prime Time Cafe to make the trip complete.

I'll be running a 10 miler in a few weeks, so it's about a 6-month warmup for the real deal and I'll be running the Avengers 1/2 Marathon too in November.

My husband and I ran our first ever 10K's yesterday and I just emailed the times with a link to the results page. I am thrilled that we beat my goal of 1:15!

Will they send anything other than the automated response email to let us know they have the information?

Now we are thinking about running another one in 2 weeks to see if we can do any better but right now my body says "No!" lol.

Congrats! Yep, you should get another email saying your estimated finish time has been adjusted. Can take a couple days to a couple weeks, depending on how busy they are.

Does anyone know if ticket discounts were limited to the 10-miler only? In the past we have gotten them for the 5k and kids races. Anyone only running the 5k get a ticket discount?

Are the ticket prices listed in this thread somewhere?

Us too but no go at 6 AM. We settled for CA Grill, then TOTW for after dinner drinks and Hallowishes.

Has anyone ordered the tickets (just tickets, not package) from the RunDisney site? I'm asking because I'm wondering how long they take to ship in general -- I want to be able to make the FP+ reservations when my window opens up so I'll need to have tickets linked to MDE before then ... but hey, I gotta be honest -- 3 tickets aren't cheap and I'd like to delay spending that money for as long as possible

From what I understand, when the race starts. (10pm) You can cheer on your runner and then enjoy the party while the race is going on and after.

Thanks! That covers one of my questions! we registered the kids for the kids mile run but haven't done our 5k registration yet. I couldn't get the kids code to work and I am wondering if its because kids races are excluded from the discount this year? Wondering if the 5k is also excluded this year? We have gotten tix with the 5k in the past but I read that they may be reducing who is eligible for the discounts? Anyone know?

We have a stack of non-expiring tix, but the run disney 5 day are still a good buy for us...

So did everyone start making ADR's today{saturday) How smoothwas the process? I'm still not sure on my itinerary, will i still be ok in a month?

I made my ADRs but no BOG even at 6:00 a.m. On day 180. I would make your ADRs then cancel rather than wait, if you can.

Booked our ADRs yesterday, also was not able to get BoG for Friday but did manage to snag one at 8:55 on Saturday for my mom and DD if they decide to go to MK while I'm at the race but I was happy to get Kona for Friday breakfast and the Plaza for Friday dinner, haven't eaten at either but I hear great things, can't wait to have my first Tonga Toast!

 

[annmarieda]

I didn't have much trouble getting the ADRs I wanted. I didn't even set my alarm to get up early.

I haven't ordered them yet this year, but in the last few years we've done ToT I believe it took about a week or two to get them.

You can always call up the RunDisney staff and ask them about turnaround time too.

I know it's Springtime and to beautiful to be inside sitting in front of a computer, but no post since Monday. It's the TOWER OF TERROR 10 MILER and each day we're getting closer and closer.


Let's hear it!!!

I'm only doing the 5K, but my daughter is doing the 10 miler. We are preparing together. Yesterday, she ran/jogged the entire 3 miles without stopping or walking. Progress. She's doing a 10K next week to get a time to submit.

 

[AThrillingChase]

I just made my ADR for Tutto Italia for a late lunch before the race! And it is finally starting to warm up around Cleveland so I may even be able to start running! Can't wait!

 

[RunDisney Crazy]

That's great! I'm sorta surprised the 5K hasn't filled up yet, it's been slow to jump. My wife and I signed up for the 10Miler but for some unknown reason I'm waiting to sign up for the 5K. I know I'm going to do it, but don't have an excuse for signing up yet. It's so weird that you have to sign up for races almost a year and plan a year ahead of time. Nerve-racking more than the race!

I'm assuming you can turn in a half marathon time to be used for the 10 Miler?
