5K Done

 

[Barca33Runner]

5k done. I was the Eeyore waiting on the side of the road in the backstage area at about the 2.5 mile range if anyone saw me. I didn’t lose my tail, but I had a lost Tigger and Roo I had to wait for.

We met up with our sleepy Piglet back at Pop after the race:

Congrats 5K runners!! I hope everyone who ran and/or walked this morning (as part of the race or on your own) had a great time!

 

[FFigawi]

Nice morning for a run.

 

[KevM]

hate to bring you back to reality... but we are more like 1/16 done.... thud.... fifteen 5k's to go! ouch

14.677 5Ks. That’s more than enough. need to round up. Hahaha.

 

[CDKG]

Sorry I missed the meetup this morning. I was on the same bus as a friend, and since we were both in corral B, we stuck together. I got to see my guy Pluto after the 5k!!! ♥♥♥

 

[Baloo in MI]

Off to a good start. Hip held up very well, took it easy, as will be the theme this year! Sorry for missing the morning meetup. Will try again tomorrow. Now it is time to fly with Peter Pan. Congrats all you 5K and Dopey folks!

 

[Tennesotans]

Great job 5k-ers! Enjoying the pix

 

[FFigawi]

Hey @DopeyBadger - we need your math skills. We want to zip off course during the 10k to hit DHS for a ROTR boarding group. Do we have enough time to do it and still beat the balloon ladies before they pass Jelly Rolls?

 

[FawnJD]

So, I have a very important question...

At the Expo, I bought a beer in the refillable cup, and the refills were shown priced at a discount (I only had the first one). Is this cup only good at the Expo, or can it be used for Parking Lot Beers post-race? If so, is there a discount?

Congrats on the 5K, all!

I’ll be around in my rainbow romper too

Wait, what? Is it you we photographed at Pop this morning? We were the two with chipmunks on our shoulders.

So if anyone was up near front of A and saw a sudden mad dash of runners and duos coming in and starting. Yeah runDisney messed us up this morning. Right people have been notified but it was a right mess where what we were doing and when changed on the fly. View attachment 463879
Also got my boarding group

Wishing you good luck. We were 96 yesterday and got called at 5:23PM... Just as we were entering Disney Spring for dinner. With that DD and I are completely exhausted. And we just did the 5k

Excellent!

I feel it shows a really admirable level of optimism on my part that I'll be putting that cup in my gEAR bag in anticipation of an overpriced--but at least slightly discounted--Bud Light on Sunday morning.

 

[Z-Knight]

ok, 2nd day, found visors.. still there

 

[StarGirl11]

So I got talking with a Beach Club CM and she said runDisneys expecting this to be their hottest marathon.

Looks like the balloon ladies are estimated at that spot at 7:30am (or 70 min after starting). So you would need to get boarding groups at 7am, and then be able to make it back there in 30 min or less. Based on the marathon distances that walkway is about 0.8 to 1.0 miles. So it seems feasible.

Had a nice run this morning. I felt course etiquette was not so great this morning from my fellow runners, but oh well. I was in such a rush to get a nap that I forgot to look for Pluto post race. Hoping to catch him at mk.
