I'll allow it.

I'd even be happy with F.I'll allow it.
Seriously considering going all out for my half next weekend to try and make the potential corral A cutoff. The worst that could happen is I completely bonk, but I have a half PR from April of this year so I think I'd be okay with that....hmmmm....
Kristin that half is actually short so that should help you. It is routinely .5 miles short. The only thing is one hill about mile 7 but after that you should be able to PR and probably move up to A.
Oh man, but then I feel like I am cheating! LOL.
You know it!For all of you trying to get an early corral ... remember that the party corrals are further back. We have more fun! #CorralE #MaybeD
Keels was right about the quick response. Here's what I got:
Sarah,
Thank you for reaching out about the WDW Marathon Weekend and proof of time. We had our verifier do the calculation for you and the results are as follows:
10 Mile with a finish time of 1:45:00 = estimated 4:58:00 Marathon Finish
Half Marathon with finish time of 2:22:00 = estimated 5:00:00 Marathon Finish
We wish you magical miles as you prepare for your upcoming events.
Thank you,

So ... there's some data for the math. Off by a few seconds, but close to what we expected from @DopeyBadger's chart.
Ride doesn’t open until 9AM sometimes it may open a few minutes early but don’t expect that. So try to estimate your arrival for EE right about 9AM. Single rider is usually open so that is an option. My first year I did single rider this year I waited in regular standby. The line typically moves quick. It’s basically right at the 13.1 mike marker.I just thought about how I should try to ride EE during the race because it will be the only time I go to AK during this trip and probably my only chance to ride it. What are the logistics I need to know to execute this?...
Ugh. Okay. Thanks Panda. Obviously this is fine but in my head I don't want to run for 6 hours but who knows how I will feel by Marathon day after 3 early mornings and probably late nights and booze.Ride doesn’t open until 9AM sometimes it may open a few minutes early but don’t expect that.

I didn’t know how I’d feel after I did it either but I actually felt great coming out of it.Ugh. Okay. Thanks Panda. Obviously this is fine but in my head I don't want to run for 6 hours but who knows how I will feel by Marathon day after 3 early mornings and probably late nights and booze.

When I registered for 2017 Avengers, my last long run was the Dark Side Half. All runs since then had been shorter than 5 miles, possibly even 4. I hadn't ran in 6 weeks period. All this 3 weeks before the race. I finished, which was my goal.My only worry is I haven't run more than 10 miles since January. I have a base but the distance isn't there right now. And its just under 2 months away now.
I got to the EE line at 8:55 and the ride was open. This was the line.I just thought about how I should try to ride EE during the race because it will be the only time I go to AK during this trip and probably my only chance to ride it. What are the logistics I need to know to execute this?...
26 minutes? Wow, that's not bad at all! I've skipped EE so far in my 3 WDW marathons firstly because I've been stuck on it once and it took nearly an hour to be released - and I am in no way fast enough to make that up in a race, and secondly because I really thought it would tack an extra 30+ minutes to my time. I'm still not sure I'm ready to risk getting stuck, but it's good to know if all goes well, I could handle the extra time it takes to ride!Looking back at my stats for that mile, it took me 26 minutes and I was moving for 17 of those minutes.
Yes.Can you scan the photo to your magicband without it having actually scanned into the park?
