It was a lot of fun, though I think it would benefit from some improvements. Free food consisted of HOT water and Powerade and bananas. That's all I remember seeing. But there were food/ice cream/beer carts aplenty and I believe at least one restaurant was open.

Loved your Race report lol, hopefully the clues are a bit easy for this year coming up

By the way anybody know the discounts from last year, resort pluse tickets?

Just finished my first 5K last Saturday and finished in 49:04 minutes making my pace under the minimum Disney requires so...I've convinced my daughter to do the Everest Challenge with me! So excited!!

I'm super excited to run this with my family. Any idea/rumors on when registration will open? Anyone have a picture of the clues from last year?

Hello,

Thinking of doing the Expedition. How much was the registration for last race? Adult price.

Thanks

Quick question. We are thinking of doing this but we are a family of 3. Would it be better to register as 3 individuals or 1 team and 1 individual?

I registered while I was at the Tinkerbell Half Expo so I got a slight discount. It was $89.96 including the active.com fees, so I'm thinking maybe I got it for $85 and the regular price was $90. That was also during the "early" registration period. The longer you wait to register, the higher the price.

If you want to run together, you'll have a better chance of being placed in the same corral by signing up as individuals. In past years, Disney has had individuals in the first corral, followed by male teams, co-ed teams, then female teams. (I hope I got the team order right.)

I remember one year zipping by the clue distribution table and forgetting to pick up my first clue! Got to the entrance of Animal Kingdom and had to go all the way back...lesson learned, study the course logistics first.

I emailed runDIsney several days ago asking when registration information would be posted. I just got a reply saying that they are in the process of updating the website now and registration will open in December.

Not sure if "now" means today or sometime this week, or it's on the to-do list, but hopefully it means soon! I just hate not having my room booked already so I can start planning.

I completely agree. December seems late for registration to open to me, but I guess I'm just comparing it to the Princess registration. Thanks for sharing the info!

Also, thanks to LUVMYGRLJB for posting the clue pictures. I feel a little better about my ability to solve them now. Thanks!!
