I was in A for the 5k/10k and D for the HM/M.Now that corral information is on the horizon, I'm prepping the DIS List for everyone that runs during the weekend. I put together the list which includes all sorts of information that one may find helpful for the weekend including costumes, corrals, early/late arrivers, where you plan to line up, expected pace, estimated start time, estimated time to milestones (like Cinderella castle) and estimated finish time of day. In prep, I have two questions that will be helpful for coming up with the 2018 version:
1) If you ran Dopey in 2017, what was your 5k/10k corral and HM/M corral? I use this information to help determine 2018 Dopey Corral assignments into 5k/10k assignments which helps with my timing. While 2016 was not equal to 2017, it helps some to have 2017 official info. For example, I was in Corral B last year for the HM/M and Corral A for the 5k/10k.
2) If you ran either the 5k or 10k as a solo event in 2017 (not a Dopey bib), what was your estimated pace based on your registration (still available on Active.com by selecting "My Events" and "Past Events") and what corral were you assigned? I'm trying to see if I can find a correlation between Dopey bib assignments, the pace estimation of solo 5k/10k runners, and the final assignments for both.
While each year is individualistic based on the runners who have entered for that particular year, it should enable me to make relatively close guesses. Thank you in advance for your help.
I was just able to score a FP+ for Flight of Passage on our arrival day. YAY!! I'd been checking periodically with no luck and suddenly today, there was availability. So, I traded Navi River for that one.
Thanks! Me too!Thanks for posting that! I checked just now and scored a Flight of Passage as well.
Magical Express Luggage Tags came today. It's getting real.

My goal for the marathon is to cross the finish line with a beer in hand.

It's so beautiful! I've passed on every ornament until now, but I can't wait to see this one on my tree next year.The 2018 runDisney ornament is available online now. They should have them at the expo as well but in case you want it for Christmas. They should have a marathon weekend specific one at the expo as well.

That's easy to do. Grab one in Germany on your way around.
Go check for FoP! I just was able to get some myself!
That was my plan, but wondering is there usually a long line? What are my other options?
