Contacted DVC and they do not know if they will be offering early registration for DVC members Hopefully it's just too new for them to know.
I'm pretty annoyed with RunDisney announcing this after the Castaway Cay Challenge sold out. They know their events sell out in 24 hours or less, so why not announce all of this at the same time and let people make a choice? There are no flights from Orlando to LA that will arrive in time to make the Expo on Friday, so there is no way to do both the Castaway Cay Challenge and the Rebel Challenge. I may try and register for the Half because that is just how afflicted I am with RunDisney-itis, but I am still annoyed.
I'm so excited! My running buddy and I are definitely in for the Rebel Challenge, and hopefully we can talk my best friend into it as well!
I still don't get why they would move Tinker Bell to May instead of just scheduling the Star Wars half in May. I'll be coming down for both regardless, but it just doesn't make much sense to me.

Hopefully AP/DVC doesn't sell out before June 6th. Need to wait until paycheck day (or just not spend any money at Disney this weekend for Star Wars Weekends)
I'm in for the Rebel Challenge as long as I can get in. Would love to do the 5k too, but I figured w/ Dopey the week before work will be happier if I go in on Friday. That's okay, there's always '16 and my wallet will be a tiny bit happier.
Best Western Park Place has rooms right now for $107 w/ AAA if people have started looking.
Definitely not trying to stop you from doing a sister thread but what I have found is it gets really confusing for people to look back and forth trying to get info.... (I've also managed the Princess threads a couple times)usually the run disney stuff stays on the WISH boards. Again, totally up to you but hate to have you recreate everything that I am also putting time into.
Happy running!
I should be good and just stay at home and drive, but my legs always hate mt afterwards! If you do end up registering, I hope I finally get to meet you!
It's there as an option. I personally prefer the opportunity to chat with as many people as possible who will be participating, and not everyone on the DIS knows the WISH board exists, so I find it helpful to have one of the Disneyland board as well. It's just an option for anyone else who feels they might benefit from it. I've been making threads for the runDisney events over there for a few years now and enjoy it. And for what it's worth, I'm not recreating what you are doing. To each his own, and I'll continue to post on both

If you make a race thread in a DL forum it will get moved here anyway.
It's too new for DVC Member Services to have the info. For Avengers they didn't update the member website with the early registration info until one or two days before. RunDisney replied to a tweet saying that DVC does get early registration for this one too
We have APs & the Disney visa. Is it worth waiting for general registration to get the DV discount or should we just do the early AP registration and forget about the discount. I'm assuming it will sell out quickly on June 10.

You should not do general registration unless you have to. It's very likely to be a madhouse.

Good to know. I am totally unfamiliar with DL.
I was thinking it was like WDW in that it was totally secluded and WAY out of the way from the rest of the world...however if you can actually walk from an outside hotel to the start line..its good to know...since I don't know how much their hotel rooms are right now.
How is the area there (Hojos)? You must have had to walk when it was dark outside to be at a race for an early start time. So I gather it isn't ... creepy...
Lol, I thought I'd be able to handle this, but I guess the nerd in me can't! A Parsec is a unit of distance, not time! Hope I'm not embarrassing myself too much
