Seriously debating this as well. I originally skipped registering for the 5k because I thought it would be difficult getting the day off to pick up the bib, but I think it would so be worth it for that medal!
Regretting not signing up for this one. Debating joining the RawThreads club to get a registration so I can earn this medal... I doubt runDisney will open it back up for a third time.

Question for you guys - do the buses run in the morning before the races? I would like to stay near the Toy Story lot since Best Western Stovalls is all booked up but I know that would be a pain to walk in the morning before the race (and a little dark ). If I could grab one of the buses from Toy Story that morning, that would be fantastic. Anyone have experience with this?
For Tinker Bell Half they gave out ART passess if you stayed more than a mile away. We were at the Marriott near the Convention Center and were offered an ART pass for the races. I decided to walk because it was faster than taking the bus. Plus it drops you off at the bus drop off near the park entrances, so if the start is near the Disneyland Hotel again, you still have some walking to do.
Did I miss the cover photos for this race on Facebook or did they not do them??
Now I just have to turn those into shoe clips and fashion a headband.
Oh okay! Thanks for the info! I'm still struggling on where to stay; might be at Candy Cane Inn now that my parents want to come along. Where is everyone else staying?
Can you guys believe that it is only 84 days until the start of the races! I am so excited for this!!!!! I just wish the temperature would cool down!!! It's been over 100 consistently for the last week and now with fires burning all around us and one actually rather close, the air quality is complete crap. Breathing in ash is so not conducive to training.
You have to pick up your own bib. They don't let proxies pick up for people anymore...that's a change that was made 1-2 years ago.I'm signed up for the Infinity Gauntlet Challenge! And ouch, my heart is breaking as I suddenly remember how much that race set me back ...
Question for you guys -- does anyone know of any alternate methods for bib/packet pick-ups? I remember when I did the Disneyland 5k earlier this month, I read somewhere that only the runner is able to pick up their bib and such -- or something to the tune of that ... basically, my friend that's also doing the IGC, we're both driving to Anaheim from Vegas that night because my friend thought it would be great to get married on 11/11 ... it's cute, sure, but now we're stressing out over when we can pick up our bibs, since we're not going to arrive in Anaheim until 10pm (at the earliest) on Friday night. We're meeting up with a third friend who is flying into Anaheim Friday morning and will be there all day, so we're hoping we can give him photocopies of our driver's license and whatever information may be required, and that he can just pick them up for us ... hopefully that'll be the case. I emailed runDisney earlier in the day but haven't heard anything back yet!
