I was just coming to post this! So excited!
That should create a nice bump in activity around here. I'm pretty excited for this.
Medal reveal = decision on which race to run. (well, not the only factor). Let's hope I only like the marathon.
FYI: I've never seen a running medal that I didn't like! Regardless, I'm only running Goofy!Gah....I hope the 5K, 10K & Dopey medals are AWFUL. I'm already having FOMO because I love the logos. I'm only running Goofy....I'm only running Goofy........
Regardless I’m running Dopey just so I don’t miss out #FOMOFYI: I've never seen a running medal that I didn't like! Regardless, I'm only running Goofy!
you start an IRA yet?Regardless I’m running Dopey just so I don’t miss out #FOMO
My bank account continues to hurt though...
While it's not the reason why I signed up for Dopey, I did choose Dopey in part because if the 5K or 10K was Chip and Dale, I would seriously regret it.Gah....I hope the 5K, 10K & Dopey medals are AWFUL.

And get changed to Chip and Dale. That would indeed be very exciting for me.My biggest wish for the reveal is that the 10k medal doesn’t include Oswald.
That would be exciting.
Seems really early for a medal reveal. I think I'm most intrigued by the anniversary Goofy medal and the marathon medal with Mickey and Minnie.

I think it's definitely taking longer races to sell out. I think the half distance is extremely daunting to non runners and serves as a barrier to many runners. With the introduction of 10K distances and metal 5K medals, I think there's less incentive for new and/or non runners to jump in. I signed up for my first half because I really wanted a Sleeping Beauty Castle medal and I spoke with some runDisney participants who took the time to explain the reality of what it would take to complete the distance. Not to say it was easy, but they explained to me how the distance was not impossible and that it could be done.But, I suspect that maybe the longer races are taking longer to sell. When I first started looking at marathon weekends, I vaguely remember most of the races selling out really quickly, but I think they have generally been slowing down. Still, a ton of people go, but I think there used to be much more demand.
How else are you going to impart all of your experience to us?I keep telling myself that, but I keep checking this thread.
