I think I am running in a costume - but I am feeling pretty silly about it sitting at home let alone at race time. It isn't much, but I wonder how many people will be wearing costumes?
It doesn't consist of much beyond a printed tank top and sock and and sparkle/tutu skirt because I am dreadfully worried about the heat (it is snowing here today and I have a wood fire roaring to keep the house warm - so anything about 10 degrees celcius is going to be a shock).
Yay!!! So excited! Anyone else running in a tutu?

Oh no! Hope you feel better and it's nothing serious. Our gimpy crew is certainly growing. I just hope to be off crutches by race time at this point.
Not quite! We are 5624 and 5625!I am 5454.. So dead last! .
Has anyone heard ANYTHING about this event for next year?
I'm in such a quandry right now. We told the kids that we would do this race next year when they are both old enough. Now that there is rumor that it might not happen, we would do our Plan B which is spring break at HHI.
Here's the dilemma...as DVC Members, we would need to book the studio (1 of 21 available) at exactly the 11 month mark which would be April 30...8 days away! I don't know what to do. I really want to do this race, but if we can't, I would really rather go back to HHI next year for vacation instead of another WDW trip.
For any past runners, I was trying to get to packet pickup before 9am on Saturday. What are the chances I'll be able to get my packet, get some rundisney NB shoes (fingers crossed) and make it to the Poly for a 10:30am ADR?
The New Balance shoes will be on a first come first served basis for Expedition Everest - they aren't utilizing the virtual queue. With that, getting your packet and shoes shouldn't take you that long I don't believe. If you estimate 30-45 minutes to get that done, you'd have about 45-60 minutes to get to the Poly, which seems doable. Keep in mind that Disney usually recommends leaving an hour or so for travel on reservations since you never really know how the buses will do for you. . . but if you're driving yourself, I think you could probably do it. ETA: Something you could do in advance to help is visit a store with the model of New Balance shoes you're interested in buying. Make sure you like the feel and know what size you want in that model. That way you wouldn't have to try them on or anything - just tell them the size, pay, and get on your way!
