Official Wine & Dine 2018

Thought the 10k course was terrible. No other way to describe it than $#!@ show. It was so crowed, nearly impossible to run. I expected some areas to be congested, but 90 percent of it was! Also, needed more music/entertainment before Epcot.

Wait! I saw some beer and wine in people’s hands, although I didn’t personally have any. WWoS cups/ plastic wine glasses.

Hope you guys had a great race!

You mean you don’t like overpasses

I wasn’t thrilled with this course. I prefer the marathon 10k course.

the inaugural had that one too and I loved it.... last years which I also ran for Star Wars was pretty good too imho aside from the parking lot at DHS

Congrats runners and good luck on the half tomorrow! I'll be running with you...just not in Florida.

@rteetz have you ever thought of making a magicband costume for the races? Or just wear them all?

It’s OK - I called and told them not to serve @croach.

OMG why haven’t I thought of that! Not sure what I’d do though.

Buy a toy WWE champion belt and overlay magiband decoration over it and wear it around your waist!

Finished my first ever 10k today and learned that being in the last corral stinks, even when you start in the front of it. Don't get me wrong, it was the correct corral for me, but certain places on course it was impossible to run with so many walkers crammed in one place. I ended up running on the grass in places as long as my heel allowed it. On the upside, I never felt tired

Congrats! Been there before. It’s not fun at times but glad you had a good race!

They told me two different things about it but when they said 8:00 I just left. Figured it wasn’t right but no big deal.

[Chasing Dopey]

Congrats to everyone who survived the race this morning! Ran with DW, as I typically do for the 10Ks. They won't be using that course again! It was very reminiscent of the infamous first Dark Side 10k. Oh, well. Recovering for the big one tomorrow!

 

[FFigawi]

Who do I speak to about a refund - no beer after the race. Get me Iger on the phone.

That's just un-American

 

[Disney at Heart]

Hope you guys had a great race!

Missed seeing you today. Or if you were around, I was in the middle of a vacant stare! We got pictures with Lightning McQueen, Pirates, Oswald, and Jimminy Cricket, and did a potty stop in 1:20:54; then did Sebastian afterwards, so after all these years of never stopping, this year has been a new experience! I’m in C tomorrow.

CONGRATS!!!

I will say, though, that the rD 10K courses are not usually as narrow for as long stretches as this one was. And this one only hit one park, so I will say that you did not get a very representative sample! So, clearly, you need to do another one to compare... ...

 

[lurkergirl]

Like @Capang, I had made major issues with crowding this morning. We all came to a crashing halt at the first water stop, it was a little bit scary. I wog (walk/jog) but this was a totally different experience than the last Disneyland 10K.

My time was a bit off, which I initially chalked up to my recent organ donation surgery...but now I’m thinking it was the bottlenecks.
