Wine and Dine 2015

I think that is my next one too - very glad to hear you will be on the look out for it!

I'm planning to do the full, so I don't anticipate it going as quickly as the challenges OR the 10k/5k/half. But, then again, I though the races today would last closer to 2 hours.

@mbwhitti - Did you end up doing the pre-race taste?

I'd go quickly if anyone wants this - it is saying 70% sold out already! Those usually don't even sell out until right before the race...

The challenges tend to sell out the fastest. I remember Dopey this year and Pixie dust were around 20 minutes each.

Yeah I flubbed this one a bit by thinking the link wasn't working and refreshing the page for it to have crashed and it still took me about 20 min to sign up so I feel okay with the challenges. I try to be optimistic.

Congratulations to all who got registered. My wife and I will be running our 6th W&D half. This is my favorite half marathon by far and plan on running it every year.

Just clicked on the commemorative items...they are interesting. There IS a performance jacket offering. And now I'm so torn! The jacket they offered for PHM was a lot cuter for pregistration than the one sold at the expo. I hate that you have to buy, but can't see it! But, it was also the same jacket as the TOT, just a different print...

Also the finish line party tickets don't go on sale until the 31st

Feeling Grateful! Special thanks to you, Keels! You may visit my scary clown slide, anytime!

I thought this would go in under an hour.

Cell worked fine. Used my Active account link. My info was still in there.

OK I got my friends in but it was just too stressful,google chrome wouldn't open up the billing page for the second one so I had to open up Mozilla Firefox and put in all the info again to see if that worked,hopefully it did.That was crazy,filling up in like 50 minutes,Disney better create two new race weekends to replace Everest and either bring back or replace ToT with some higher capacity races cause this is silly!!!

The runDisney site is still slow for me. Once it is running again, where are the commemorative items found?

Thanks so much for the link. Made this way less stressful.

I used a link under the event tab - but then when I just went back it was also giving me trouble.

I agree, thank you SO much for the link. I didn't see any of the lines or anything that people were talking about on facebook.

I'm still confused about that...my curiosity got the best of me and I tried it out the old fashioned way just going through the rundisney website - it took me directly to the registration page, no waiting, nada. Maybe I have a magic computer?? Which is fine, I know where to do my registering now

The FB group is going nuts. I'm guessing the "queue" or line or whatever was runDisney.com slowly funneling people to the Active link, because even after I registered, I kept checking that link and it always took me straight to race selection.

I'm sorry some of the people on the FB group didn't get in, but the ones being really pouty about it and refusing to go through a charity or travel agent ... geez.

bummer- didn't get in- I'm hoping to get in through a charity or travel agent but can't get ahold of anyone

The ID changes each race, but it's pretty easy to find. I can usually track them down once pre-registration opens up for DVC/AP. I'll keep an eye out for others if people need them, since I won't be registering for another race until WDW Marathon weekend.

Unfortunately, my next WDW race probably won't be until Marathon weekend 2017. I told my husband that if I was lucky enought to get into this one before it sold out, I'm going to start training for a the WDW Marathon. W&D will be my 6th half...never gone beyond that before but I'm ready to give it a try!

I haven't had a chance to read additional pages, so apologies if you've already answered this question... did you just get the link after clicking from the runDisney page or somewhere else? I know in the past I've had better luck from their Tweeting the link, but it looks like today they were 13 minutes behind over there. Hoping to sign up for Avengers next, and just curious where the first place I should go for a working link.

Thanks!

Check out Acclaim Travel - I know they have bibs! GET is another travel agent that is popular for races.

Look back through the thread p.27-35?, someone was worried about registration and went with a TA, they may have info., I believe they said 10 more were available. Wishes!
