With just 22 days to go…omg that’s like three weeks…waivers are ready for printing and final race information/updates have been sent! It will be here before we know it!
Here’s a few resources that are now live:
- Official Wine & Dine Half Marathon Weekend Event Guide
- Print your Jingle 5K/W&D Half Marathon Race Waivers
- iGift Bag goodies
- Runner Tracking
Tip: Print your waivers ahead of time so you won’t have to print them at the Expo. I don’t know about you, but when I arrive at the Expo, I’m ready to shop…I don’t want to spend time standing in line printing waivers.
Fun fact: When waivers for W&D were released, I spent about 30 minutes on the phone with runDisney trying to figure out why my waivers weren’t showing up online. Apparently the system made my birthday 8/26 instead of 8/27. My husband’s 5K waiver was available, but neither my 5K or Half waivers were there! It’s now fixed, but I was in serious panic mode for a few minutes – I even checked my credit card statements from March to make sure I was charged for this race! Yikes! I read online that lots of birthdays were messed up in the system so if it happens to you, don’t panic. Just call runDisney and they will fix it for you!
Tip: Check out the online iGift bag! I browsed through it last week and found two fun deals inside (among many others)! Lasting Commemoratives is offering a free bookmark to anyone who prints the form and brings it to their table at the Expo. Also, Fit2Run is a running store located in Downtown Disney, right next to Splitsville. They are offering a free drawstring bag to anyone who prints their offer and brings it to their store! We are eating dinner in Downtown Disney on Friday night, so this offer works out perfectly for me!
Our official documents have also arrived! One problem – I didn’t receive any Magical Express tags. Whomp whomp. I contacted the company who said I should expect them in 2 weeks (which will be next week ,so I’m crossing my fingers that they arrive like they are supposed to)!
The final piece of the puzzle….MAGIC BANDS!
We decided to go with classic Disney colors this time around – I love them!
At the moment, I’m working on finishing up my race outfits – I hope to have them complete by the weekend!
Roll call! Who’s running during the Wine & Dine Half Marathon Weekend (including Mickey’s Jingle 5K)! I’ll be there for both events…stop by and say hi if you see me!
Woo hoo! I still need 2 pieces to my costume and need to make part of it :P Can't wait to see you!
ReplyDeleteSame here!! Excited for a fun trip!!
DeleteI just signed up for race alerts since I'm running with a friend (but not running with that person). I'm so excited for W&D!!!
ReplyDeleteYay! Hope to see you around!
DeleteYAY! I can't believe how time is just flying by and it will be time for Wine n Dine weekend again. I always have my waiver printed out ahead of time because like you, I want to get right to the shopping part of the expo! TOT expo was the first time I noticed Fit2Run there and they had lots of booths! Cant wait to see your costumes!
ReplyDeleteI can't either! Can't wait to see what Fit2Run has at the Expo! :) Thanks!!
