[Bree]

Passholders can start booking June 30th!

I'll be running the GSC.

 

[DVCFan1994]

I'll be in for GSC #3. Likely the triple crown again, as my daughter loved doing the 5k this year, and has already asked numerous times to do it again!

I forgot until the the first post that rD gives different prices depending on when you register. Thats pretty funny since the challenge races don't generally make it a whole day without selling out - never mind the months quoted until the first price increase! Either way, I'm looking forward to my third try at this event

 

[Luv2Run]

Our situation is kind of complicated: my bf & his brother will be running the 5K together, then four of us (me, bf, his brother, brother's gf) will be doing the 10K, and then me & brother's gf will be doing the half (going for the GSC). Registration this year is going to be a major pain! Thank goodness I'm only registering the two of us, rather than all four of us. I had considered doing all three races so I can go for the Triple Crown (ha, I love that term), but since this is my first time going for the GSC, I want to see how my body does with two longer races back-to-back first. Maybe I will in 2017.

 

[DVCFan1994]

I did the GSC in 2014, all three in 2015. But, the 5k for me was mostly walking with my 6 year old. She had trained some to run, but the crowds were a bit much for her. She was very afraid we'd get separated when we were running. The number one thing that gets me through the back to back runs? Compression socks. My legs feel awesome even after touring for a few hours post race wearing them. Makes for some funky pictures, but does wonders.

 

[Ariel484]

Planning on the 5K + Glass Slipper Challenge!

I ran the Princess 5K in 2014 and the Princess Half in 2011, so it's time to give it a go again!

 

[Ariel484]

Oh and my AP just expired, so I'll be registering with the masses on July 14.

 

[cindy21494]

I'll be registering for the Glass Slipper. I'm registering for the Wine and Dine Half next week. I'm probably going to get a season pass when I'm there in November. I have a feeling I'll be using it a lot in the future. lol

I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone.

 

[Keels]

I'm in for GSC! Buying an AP when we get there in November for Wine & Dine, but I'll be registering with all y'all come open registration time. I figure it makes the most sense, since I plan on W&D, WDW Full and Princess.

All the 2016 races I do will be just me this time around. Husband has said he's done after W&D/C2C. His goal is some crazy 100-mile bike ride in 2016.

 

[joan4mickey]

I'm going to keep my Perfect Princess streak going. Number 8 for me.
I did GSC with 5k in 2013..just not my thing getting up early that many days in a row.
Thanks to Luv2Run for staring the new thread.

 

[drlaurafsu]

Joining in. Plan to do GSC again. Did it last year but skipped this year...lots of life changes...new house, new job, new city. Sign up for wine and dine already...plan is rebel challenge and GSC to get my coast to coast.

 

[QuirkyBelle]

Count me in! I did the GSC and and Wine and Dine last year, but had to take a break from run disney this year due to some big life changes coming up. Can't wait for my triumphant return in 2016 though.

 

[Luv2Run]

joan4mickey & QuirkyBelle - are you both in for the GSC? Or sticking to the Half?

 

[TangledUp]

I've been waiting for one of these to get started! Count me in too! I did the GSC in 2014 and I can't wait to do it again next year.

 

[DisneyRunner2009]

I will be passing on Princess weekend next year. My family is looking at Tink for 2016. I would love to do a C2C, at some point. Wine and Dine is of new interest to me, since you run through three parks. It would be too expensive for me to do it this fall.

 

[Mimsy Borogove]

Princess 2015 was my first PHMW, and I loved it! Hoping to do GSC next year, along with Tink to earn C2C. Got it this year already for Star Wars and PHM. I'm seriously starting a savings account for runDisney so I can keep the addiction fed!

 

[joan4mickey]

joan4mickey & QuirkyBelle - are you both in for the GSC? Or sticking to the Half?

Just the half.

 

[Gryhndmom]

Right now DH and I are planning to do the PHM half 2016! We are DVC members so does anybody know if there will be early Regis like the annual pass holders ?

 

[SweetieinVT]

Shooting for the GSC next year. What is C2C?

 

[bamacmac]

I will definitely be doing the 5K and I am starting to think about doing the 10K also! My first runDisney events! Cannot wait!!
