Still working on convincing DH we can do these races next year, he's not on board yet, but I will join this thread, just in case
Same here! I can't decide - it's so early! I don't mind the training but it's hard to plan around kids' activities and work a year out. I'll probably do it though lol.Not sure if I will be maintaining my legacy status, but I will follow the thread just in case.
<--- used the Past Participants link to re-up for Dark Side Challenge #3!
I'm running the half so I can maintain legacy status.
I'll be in for the challenge to maintain legacy (for whatever that's worth! ).
rD emailed 2017 participants with a link to register early (and save $10) for 2018. They did the same for Marathon weekend, and I think Princess, too, so it must be something they're finding works well!What is this link? I've never heard of the Past Participant re-up!
Dark Side newbie looking for sage advice. So next week what race should I aim for signing up first the 5k or the 10k

For most weekends with a challenge, the 10k fills up first due to the limited number of slots available compared to the 5k.
Leaning toward my first half being either princess in 2019 or a non Disney racePlenty of time to train to do the half as well. Do them all!

I agree - 10K first. The 5K both years has been open for a while.For most weekends with a challenge, the 10k fills up first due to the limited number of slots available compared to the 5k.
I don't recall them doing that, but I do remember various races opening and closing a few times last year.I wonder if the Challenge is ever broken out to the 2 separate races?
I'm not sure if the Star Wars races (either DL or WDW) ever said characters, the other weekends all say "Disney Characters" and since Disney characters won't be out at Star Wars they probably just deleted that part when they made the new races/pages. As for post race characters who knows, but I wouldn't get too worried about what the website says, it's known for mistakes/typos/and basically just leaving stuff off as they copy/paste a lot. If it's says for the challenge than that would be 10k & half so they probably just forgot to put it for the 5k maybe. It would be nice if the website was better but it has issues, I think some weekend lists the wrong type shirts too I keep reading people mention.With all the talk about no characters on the course at DL Tinker Bell 5k, I just read again the 2018 Dark Side descriptions. Characters on course aren't mentioned on any course (just generic entertainment) and after race characters only for the Challenge (how would they do that?). Just wanted to toss this out there for those who haven't registered yet if it makes a difference.
I really hope this isn't the case!
