Official Wine and Dine Half Marathon Weekend 2019

[LindseyJo22]

Okay,

So does anyone have details on how registering other people works now? I haven't ever needed to register other people, but the AP registration is when I'm working, so I probably won't be able to get on and do that.

If my mom registers me (she and I both have APs) - will she need to pay for both of our registrations with the same card info, or can she pay seperately?

Will I be able to access proof of time for myself, or will I have to email RunDisney somehow to get access?

Does she need to log us both into separate RunDisney accounts by using separate browser windows or something?

Thanks! I usually run on my own, and I'm pretty sure we both want into the 5k, mom wants to run the 10k, and I'm in for the challenge, so it's a little more complicated than I'm used to!

If she registers you at the same time yes she has to use the same card for both. If she does two separate registrations she can use a different card. If someone else registers you under their account you would have to contact runDisney to update POT and what not.

The other person (who used their account to do the registering) can update the registration for POT. You only have to email Run Disney if you want to claim it to your account.

Basically, if you want your registration under your account and to pay with a different card she'll need to do 2 transactions. One as you for you and then her for herself.

If she does you under her account she can update your POT, etc. Otherwise you have to email Run DIsney to claim it to your account.

It's only one form of payment (even gift card can only be one card).

So thankfully I did not get picked for NYC marathon which means W&D is on! I’m in for the challenge. I’m on the fence about the 5K and paying for an additional hotel night.

I am leaning towards doing the 5K. I like it a lot better than the regular WDW 5K.

My wife and I are considering this race in 2020. Is it permanently a morning half now or might they switch the half back to a night race at some point?

It’s a morning race for as far as I the eye can see

Why is this 5K better?

 

[1lilspark]

Why is this 5K better?

Different course as it runs through animal kingdom but as always it’s subject to change

Running through AK in the dark is awesome. That’s my favorite part of the half course for SW & W&D! I was looking at the calendar and just don’t know if I can make it work with Halloween on Thursday.

 

[rteetz]

Why is this 5K better?

Tons of AK park time. Running through Pandora and other areas. It’s also usually smaller so shorter character lines and just a lot of fun.

 

[QueenFernando]

Well crap. I had pretty much talked myself out of doing the 5k and just sticking with the 2 course challenge. Because the 5k is the morning after Halloween, it will be a logistical nightmare. But after hearing everyone talk about it, I want to do it again. Sigh.

 

[lvcourtneyy]

DBF and I have officially decided to do the Wine and Dine 5k as our first race ever

What time does registration open for APs on the 14th?

We attend the expo on Halloween to get our race bibs and that's included in the race price correct?

If I read correctly, the registration for the 5k doesn't include tickets to the post-race party. I remember friends of ours saying they purchased tickets to the post-race party at a discount on a race marketplace? Is that a thing and where do I find it lol?

Sorry I have a lot of questions! This side of Disney is all new to me!

Considering this instead of marathon weekend. Does anyone think SWGE will open before this? I'm trying to decide if I want to be there fairly soon after it opens or not. I'm thinking it won't be open before this weekend and so that might make it a better choice than waiting until January.

Also, can anyone tell me more about the post-race party? Can people who didn't run the race come? Cost?

And last, do you think the courses will be the same? That's the main reason I'm interested. I like that the half goes through several parks. The marathon weekend half is so boring.

Before? No.

Yes people who don’t run can buy a ticket for like $80 to the party. It’s basically like Epcot EMH for runners.

I think the courses will be pretty much the same.

I kind of hope that the 10k course goes back to how it was in 2017 I missed the boardwalk/DHS this year even though we did have more Epcot time this last run

I'm officially in for all 3 races, my first runDisney races! My dad will be joining me but not running and a friend of mine and her dad will be there too. Now I've just got to plan the trip

So I've seen and heard conflicting registration times for 2019 Wine & Dine for both passholders on 3/14 and open registration on 3/19? Anyone have a confirmed time to be ready for on both days?

It’s always Noon EST.

 

[MyFavEeyore]

This says different for open registration. Hence, my question.
