Sorry, I don't even know the difference of a marathon and a 13K.

And the after party is $35, so you could spend $90 total............


.......to run.



And if that's your thing (yes, I know it is yours) then that's fine. I'm not knocking it, just not sure I'd spend the money for that kind of event. I had no idea that was usual for such events (or any kind of event for that matter- I'm cheep ) With staffing, emergancy workers, security, permits and stuff it does cost to operate these.

Sorry, didn't mean to come off so .........

I hope you find someone to go, and you have a good time. Maybe we will get another Run Steph, Run! thread going!

A marathon is about 40k (26 miles). A 13k is about 8 miles.

I'm not a fan of ToT (drop rides offer exactly zero thrill) so lots of rides on that doesn't appeal. But I do like Rockin' Roller Coaster as much as I ever like roller coasters.

They better not oversell though because one of the worst things to do after a long run is spend a lot of time standing still.

With a good group of people pairing this one one night with Not So Scary could be a pretty fun weekend.

That's better than turning you out...

[Not Afraid]

This sounds like a really cool event (even with the running part )

[Stan4dSteph]

Registration is now open, and I have signed up!

[Matterhorn Fan]

I'm thinking about walking it.

[Alex]

Looks like I'll be there after all.

[Matterhorn Fan]

OK, I'm in. I'd better not regret this.

Now, I'm not math expert, but last I checked, 65 + 4.72 did not equal 69.73. Odd, no?

To bad it's in Disneyworld or I would go...but being that I'm on the west coast....

[Matterhorn Fan]

There's no rule that people cannot travel from one coast to the other.
