Disneyland Star Wars 1/2 marathon weekend 2017

You know I will be there at Star Wars if I am able!

Did the 5k this morning with our two boys. Had a great time! The runners were all so pumped up and there were TONS of great costumes! Will definitely be doing this race again next year!

Thanks for the info Justin! My husband was considering deferring this year because the guys he was planning to run with had to all drop out. BUT, he realized he would get a coast to coast AND the Inaugural Kessel Run Challenge medal if he did the race as planned this year so of course he is going to go ahead on his own.

So today is the 11 month window for DVC and we used a non sponsor(sorry, John) and they confirmed a reservation for us at the Grand Californian. We cannot wait to go back. Just returned from a quick trip to DLR and every time I forget how much I love it there. Hope to see a nice strong #runICOT AND #cheerICOT presence in January.

Awesome! Congrats on the score of a Villa at Grand Californian.

I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one already booking a room. I can't wait to get back to DL! Also, this will be my first run ever, of anything. I plan to do the 5K. I'm nervous and excited. :yay:

I'm gonna get on booking a room too. I think we will stay at Grand Californian...gotta check it off my Disney Hotel bucket list!! As for races, I think my DD and myself will do the 5K and my DS (age 7) will do the 400m kids race. He did the Avengers 5K last November and even though he managed it, the whining was a little much. "ARE WE THERE YET?!?". Hahaha! I'm sort of tempted to do my first 10K too...will keep thinking about that one...

The AP registration is only for those with a Disneyland AP? I have DW AP.

No, either type of AP will work. There will be a link to the registration from your AP website.

Just a reminder: AP/DVC registration is tomorrow (June 7th) 9AM PT! Good luck to those wanting a spot. :yoda: :chewy:

My son and I are in for the 5k! My husband will be running the Rebel Challenge.

Signed Andrew and I both up for the Rebel Challenge - here's hoping that the schedule is clear to go next January given what I just spent ;)
