WDW 1/2 Marathon is 93% FULL

[cobbler]

cobbler, did you ever get any confirmation? Still no email back for me, cash not checked, no postcard...

Nope, nothing for me yet either, but I did email them to make sure since it is filling up so quickly.

I forget the email right now but it is under the thread I started that is Goofy is Full.

I'm w/ ya MaryJ! I guess we'll have to decide soon!

Susie--thanks for the encouragement.

Carrie--thanks for the FYI on the Travel companies. I didn't know that. I thought you had to register first. Didn't know you could register through them.

I did mention it to DH to see what he thought...Told him to think about it. I guess we'll see what happens...

At the rate of 10% a week(like last week), it will be filled in less than 3 weeks.

Amazing it might be filled by early March. It took until 6/1 for the 08.

I guess that $15 increase on 3/1 is driving everyone to signup now

Will they continue to post updates as space continues to fill (ie. 85%, 95%)? I'm trying to push DFi to register but he's still on the fence. At the same time, I don't want to register him and then take up a space unnecessarily and lose the registration fee as well.

Did they email you back cobbler? They didn't me.

 

[cobbler]

Not yet Shan, I will give them until the end of the week before real panic sets in.

I had our Goofy confirmations in our mailbox today. Hadn't checked for a while but postmarked 2/4.

Well, I took a leap of faith and registered today. In the past, I've not been very good at keeping up with any PT exercises that I've been given, but now I have a goal! I've all ready done the exercises twice today and will keep it up until I'm ready to really start training.

Good for you. I think you will HAVE to work out now. When I was in the dead of summer last year, I hated going to the track to practice and my mantra was if I didn't have this darn 1/2 marathon I would NOT be here sweating! So what did I do, sign up for the 2009 1/2 marathon. Yup I know me, and it's the only way I'll keep in shape.

Good for you!

yah I am coming too. can't wait to do it again and have a better time.

 

[lenshanem]

cobbler, got an email back from them today. We're in for the half.

FYI - check has not been cashed yet.

 

[cobbler]

I have not received an email yet. Who did you email? I think I did the disneysports@emmi.com

If I don't hear back from them by Friday, I will have to send another one out.

 

[lenshanem]

That is the email. I had to send two emails before I got a response. Good luck!

 

[lenshanem]

Also, got postcards today!

(Yet, check not cashed...)

 

[cobbler]

Got my email today, I am all set!!

 

[ScoJo15]

As of this morning...it's now 85% full...

 

[postesf]

ugh. I keep hoping it will slow down...I need more time to think about this!

 

[ScoJo15]

Just sign up Stacie.

I want to do this so badly, but we already have several trips planned this year. I was hoping to have until after the Minnie to make a decision.
Arrrghh! Maybe I'll sign up and just hope I can work it out. I hate the thought of losing my entry fee if I can't make it, but I think I hate the thought of being able to work it out and then be too late to enter even more.

I'm with you. I hope it slows down after the Feb 29 deadline for the lower price. I haven't even run my first race yet (Minnie 15k) and I've only just hit the 4 mile mark in my training, so it's hard to imagine signing up for a half. But it is SOOOOO tempting. Hope they post it when it gets to 95%--then I'll feel compelled to register.
