Official 2013 Tinker Bell Half Marathon Thread

[freepixie]

OT for sure here -- but on the waivers, what do they have listed as the date for the TOT 10-miler in 2013?? Cause on the waivers for the full marathon, it was listed as the last weekend in Sept., but on the full marathon program, it was listed as "October." Trying to get a rough idea here

But if you have a proof of time that you can bring to the expo, you don't have anything to worry about!

Thank you for the info- I appreciate it. I guess I was just nervous. After my first half- Disneyland Half 2009- I made sure I would move up as far as I could in the Corral's.

If you are 25123, then you are farther back in the corrals, but not in the way back. Probably B or C is a guess. 29123 would be farther back. Make sense?

THANK YOU- this is very very helpful! I love this site and all the great info everyone gives

I'm kind of behind on figuring it out myself! Should be wearing a skirt/tutu that I'm having made but its not shipping until right after the first of the year so always the possibility it won't really work, but I hope so! If not, I'll probably pick up a team sparkle skirt at the expo. I'm ironing on a little Tink/Minnie silhouette for my top...it's ordered but haven't received that yet either

Let the 30 day count-down begin !!!

I've seen a lot of guys with 4000 numbers, and thought they made the guys start in C corral. If that's the case, then we at least know that C corral will be numbers starting in the 4000s (they do not let guys start in A- and I think B as well)


Reep- I took a look and yep, I think you nailed it! Or really close anyway!

Great info! Thanks! So I'm guessing I'm in C then with Bib 4673. Um, I'll be starting at the back of the corral if thats the case!

No clue. I was gonna order a sparkle skirt but decided to save $ and just be boring. I asked for a couple shirts from Rawthreads for Christmas so fingers crossed I get one (or two) of those (and that they fit!) and then I will wear that along with my black capris.

Question for those of you who know SoCal weather.... How cold do you think it will be when we start? Am I gonna want a throw away sweatshirt or anything?

I have a couple of Rawthread shirts and I love them !!! I like the fit too. I also asked for a "cindy" one for Christmas ...so we will see.

Weather wise I would definately bring something to throw away. We had great weather for the inaugural I'm hoping it will be pretty much the same.
I wore capris last time with a long sleeve shirt and I was fine. I also will be compulsively checking with weather closer to the race.

Is anyone interested in maybe meeting up for a casual dinner Friday? I'm flying in in the AM but my BF isn't coming in until late Friday night so I'll be solo for the day. Inside the park, outside of the park, doesn't matter to me...but I promised I wouldn't go see Cars Land without him so I need to stay away from that until Saturday!

[Cripey]

This race REALLY crept up on me...remembered I hadn't even booked ADR's yet!!! But, just got off the phone and was able to get everything I wanted! Wine Country saturday evening, Carthay Circle Sunday evening, and Goofy's Kitchen Monday AM.

I've never done this before, but since my DS and his GF will be coming in late, I may need to pickup their packets. If I understand correctly I can do that with a signed waiver and a copy of their drivers license, is that correct? Do I need front and back or just the front of the license that has their picture and signature?

thanks!

I believe you just need a copy of the front of their ID...however, along with their signed waiver, you're going to also need them both to sign a copy of the Packet Pickup Authorization form. They will post a link to that on the website with the waiver link at some point...if they haven't already...I haven't checked.
