what time to be in corral if i want to be near the front?

[NicoleLarson]

The princess 10k will my first race...ever. I will be in the last corral but want to be near the front to have the most cushion. I'm sure a lot of people will have this same idea. Staying at the BWV, when should we plan to be on the bus?

It's really not entirely about time to get there. The corrals will open (times seems to vary) and people will head on over. Once in the corral, you can "excuse me, pardon me" pick your way to the front. A lot of people just sit down and chill.

I did this for the Donald last month. Was in K, I think, and the corrals had already been opened by the time I got there at 4:30-ish (they seem to open earlier these days). I headed to K and then just politely wended my way to the front. It can be done (nicely).

I'll be right there with you in the last corral, excuse me-ingmyway to the front!

i agree that you can wiggle your way to the front. for the WDW 10k, DD and i went right up the middle. for the 1/2, i got to the outside edge and moved up from there. and there are always others doing the same thing, so i'll sometimes follow someone.

How do you know what corral you'll be in? I'm running the 10K as well, but can't seem to find this info - I do have my bib number...

Okay, that's what I thought I heard, but was hoping maybe we'd get it ahead of time Thanks!
