Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend - January 9-12, 2014

[BriarRose0708]

I haven't gotten anything from Visa either but hopefully something will come out ASAP!

[badkitty]

The Runner's World registration link is available now without notice. The 10K and 5K are not available with their package.

Maybe the pre-registration for DVC/AP/Visa will be the same? I'm AP and Visa holder but not sure how this will work. I'm just signing up for the 10K though so maybe this won't be available until the 9th.

I'll be checking the runDisney site first thing in the morning!

[Christine]

I am on the DVC member site now. It clearly states :

Nothing about the 10K or Dopey? (I'm trying to sign up for the 10K)

[Melanie]

I'm seeing on the runDisney FB page that you aren't the only one having issues, Christine. Maybe at noon they will open up? I am seeing folks saying something about getting through when they click on a 'deferred' tab?

[Carol]

I'm getting through but can only register Shayne for the 1/2.

[Christine]

When I clicked on the deferral just now, I got this:

Attention! Category is full!

2014 Walt Disney World® Marathon Weekend
DEFERRED to Goofy's Race and a Half Challenge
Age must be at least 18 as of 1/11/2014.
FULL Price: $340.00

Attetion! Category is full on all three options
And still no option to register for the 10K

[Carol]

Oy. It's telling me the race is FULL.

[Carol]

You cannot register for the 5 either. Everything worked until I left the DVC page to the active.com site. I tried calling and they do not open until 7PST. Looks like I'll try after work this afternoon.

[Christine]

Grrrrr! This is frustrating!

Now it shows this:

2014 Walt Disney World® Marathon Weekend

Dopey Challenge
Thursday, January 9, 2014 - runDisney Kids Races
Friday, January 10, 2014 - runDisney Kids Races

Now no half, full, or 5 or 10K? What on earth???

[Christine]

WOOHOO! It's up and working now! I'm in for the 10K and going to register 5K as well!
#runICOT!!!

[AgentC]

There is also a link on the pass holder page to register today. It seems to be working.

If I am going to have my kids do the kid's races, what day does everyone think is the best- Thurs, Fri or Sat? I am only doing the 5k.

[Carol]

Done! Got Shayne registered for the half, 10K & 5K races.

This will be me :

[Christine]

Yay!!! Cindy if it were me, I'd do the kids race on the day that is NOT your 5K

[AgentC]

Yay!!! Cindy if it were me, I'd do the kids race on the day that is NOT your 5K

Good idea Christine. Maybe I'll have them do the Saturday one. That will let me do the 5K, then I can cheer for all of you doing the 10K. If my mom can bring them over, it would also let them not miss school on the Thursday and Friday.

[Melanie]

Of course we aren't passholders anymore.

If they don't open the Visa registration tomorrow, I'm going to scream. That is all.

[J9]

I just registered for Dopey. What did I do?!?!?

[Christine]

I just registered for Dopey. What did I do?!?!?

Hahahaha! No, you'll be great! Think of all that bling!

[badkitty]

I just got in through the AP site and registered for the 10K. The confirmation says it is on Saturday. WHAT?!? The runDisney site says Friday for the 10K. Ugh.

Christine and Carol, what date does your confirmation say for the 10K?

[Christine]

I just got in through the AP site and registered for the 10K. The confirmation says it is on Saturday. WHAT?!? The runDisney site says Friday for the 10K. Ugh.

Christine and Carol, what date does your confirmation say for the 10K?

It says event date January 8 at 5:30 at the top

Then 10k Saturday January 11 mid page

Clear as mud!

[badkitty]

Ugh. I emailed Active.com. I'm also restricted from viewing my complete registration.
