Awesome! Then I will be seeing you there! Dumbo all the way!!! I am so excited for this!

I'm in for the Dumbo Double Dare! Do you think the 10K is Alice themed? I wonder if its a rubber medal or not. I'm really hoping we can sign up early at the Tink Expo b

Well that runDisney site said 'medal' not 'medallion' and it is a timed race not a fun run, so I am hoping for a real medal.

Me too! I guess I will get two medals I already have (C2C and DL) and two new ones. :-)

YAY for awesome DH's

Mine was like "well... you'll be mad if I say no and talk about it for the next six months"

mountaineer · 12-21-2012, 03:23 PM

I am planning on signing up at the expo in January.

helloirishkitty · 12-25-2012, 01:39 PM

Does anyone know what time registration opens on the 22nd? We will be in WDW, need to make sure I am near my computer

pjpoohbear · 12-27-2012, 04:52 PM

I just received permission from my Boss to go ahead and makes plans to do the Dumbo Dare (I work at a University and this is the weekend before the students arrive on campus.)

Now to plan the transportation (BUF/YYZ,) how painful is LAX, there are non-stop flights from Toronto, night be worth the extra $$ to not have a layover flight,

.

Where to stay, have already used my 2013 DVC points,

.

A four medal weekend (DD, 10k, 1/2 and C2C) Wow!

We were just saying the same thing! Three out of the four of us that are running will have four medals that weekend.

Bephus · 12-27-2012, 11:40 PM

DH said I can do DD!!! So excited

. My 35th birthday is Sept 7th so this will be my present. Four medals for me too, unless I can figure out how to get in the 5K. Can't wait, I think I will sign up at the WDW marathon expo in 2 weeks.
Now I need to figure out flights and where to stay.

I am in. Just have to decide 10k or half. To date the longest race was a 10k. So I am leaning toward half. But the Dumbo Double is calling.
I have been wanting to go back to Disneyland. Last time I was there was 1995.

butiflfeet · 12-28-2012, 08:51 AM

DH and I are definitely doing the Dumbo Double Dare! We were already planning on doing the half so what's 6.2 more miles? We're signing up at the WDW expo in two weeks. Having never been to Disneyland it will be quite an adventure. I'm paying attention to everyone's suggestions for where to stay. Planning a Disneyland trip is so different from Disney World!

harpetj · 12-28-2012, 11:46 AM

I just did my first race at W&D and got hooked on Disney races. I want the
C2C for 2013 (doing W&D again 2013). Trying to get all the financial info lined up before presenting to my hubby. I know for the W&D there were discounted park tickets through Disney for racers/family. Is this the same for Disneyland races and does anyone know about what the prices might be? TIA!

cobbler · 12-28-2012, 09:01 PM

I'm joining. I wasn't planning on making a trip out to CA but the Dumbo Double may convince me. Haven't fully decided yet and I do have time still.
