Yea....I think Dark Side 2017 was the first 10k/Half to start at TTC while parts of the front end are brutal I think I like the set up betterWe are planning on doing the 10k! Looks like it’s going to start in the MK parking lot. I think all of the races I have run have started and finished in the Epcot parking lot. Staying at BLT - just confirmed today.
DVC request for BCV was accepted this afternoon so we are in. Guess we are going for all the medals.
I"m guessing a large amount of people forgot too since the weekend is earlier than normal. I had zero issue with my standard view VGF which never happens!Wait, WHAT? We're already 11 months out??? QUICK! TO THE DVC WEBSITE!
Am I the only one that was hoping this would be something like you actually get to register for the "side" you are running for and get a bib themed to that and a specific corresponding medal? Or that there would be two halfs - maybe one night and one day? I know that would be logistically difficult especially with Toy Story land and Pandora needing the parks open so much and the construction all over the place limiting courses. But it would be fun to see them lower the caps (just a tiny teeny bit) and make 2 races and see which side actually "wins" based on chip time. Could be a way to motivate people to pick up their training as well... (which would work even if they just let you pick a "team" during registration and give different themed bibs).
I didn’t assume as much. I assumed different bib design like Princess. This sounds pretty involved for rD to pull off.Is this not what is happening? I thought I saw some wording along the lines of "choose your side" which told me you would register for either the light side or dark side. That should mean different shirt, bib, and finisher's medal based on the side you run for.

Yeah, not my assumption, either. I took it as "pick a side to represent with your outfit, on your own dime" and we all get the same stuff, lol!I didn’t assume as much. I assumed different bib design like Princess. This sounds pretty involved for rD to pull off.
Sadly you are probably correct. I should know better than to assume rD will have anything all that creative in mind. They are pretty lazy and unimaginative now.Yeah, not my assumption, either.

This makes me so sad! Star Wars weekend at Disneyland was my favorite runDisney weekend. Clearly it's not returning in 2019 (not that anyone expected it back this soon...) But, do we think that this change could be short term? Just for a year or two? Or, is this possibly a sign that Star Wars weekend at Disneyland Resort will never return? Maybe I'm just reading too much into this announcement...
May the Fourth be with you all!

Hmmmmm...There was just a Star Wars 10K run in Singapore and looks like they pulled it off -- separate finisher medals for dark and lightside, also looks like separate race shirts and totes.

Yes I know this wasn't put on by RunDisney, but RunDisney could also do this.
