So after another great #runICOT and #cheerICOT turnout at the 2016 WDW Marathon Weekend, a lot of us were talking about skipping 2017 weekend and instead going to Disneyland for the Star Wars Half Marathon weekend January 12-15, 2017. There is a 5K, 10K, 1/2 Marathon and a Rebel Challenge. Registration opens around June. More info on that to follow.
If you haven't had a chance to visit Disneyland before, and you love(like) to run, or you just want to yell like a crazy person cheering for complete strangers, join us. This IS the trip your looking for!!!

If I can convince my wife to go with, I'd totally love to race at Disneyland.
This is the trip I've been looking for.

You can also work on a coast-to-coast, John.

Needless to say, I'm completely onboard for this. We are running this weekend as a family for the 5k and I will probably do the 10k next year. I would love for this to be a big Intercot event next year because I know 100% that I can be there!

OMG I'm totally onboard with this. I may bring the whole family too. Now say a prayer to the money gods that the Canadian dollar goes back up because it'll cost me a ridiculous amount more with the conversion!!!

I just have to say, too, that the 5 and 10k courses at Disneyland are WAY better than the ones at WDW. Almost completely inside the parks!

Star Wars is the only Disneyland race I haven't done yet. A group of Intercotees may make this a very tempting option for 2017!
My DH is saying I need to pick one race per year (we disagree on how many disney trips in a year are too many :blush:). So my default race is the Tinker Bell (it is nice that I get in a better corral for the woman's race and I like spending mother's day at my favorite place) but if there is a reason to do one of the other races, like a large intercot contingent, I would strongly thinking changing my race for the year.
I will keep an eye on the forum to see how others are leaning when it gets closer to registration!

Can't you use your deferral for ANY other event? Or does it have to be the same event the following year.

I believe the same event because they told me I would receive an email with a code and instructions how to sign up 2 weeks before regular registration.
