There is only 3 races so we still have the Navy #runICOT shirt not being worn. I am brining mine with me to maybe wear one of the other days unless someone has an idea. 8 days away for us. Woo hoo. We all will be California Dreaming.

Colors are fine, though I think any runICOT shirt or ICOT shirt will represent well. Not everyone bought the full pack ��

John - maybe we can post a note on the front page of Intercot with details about the run and what plans have been made so far? That way, everyone will be on the same page (no pun intended!). And worst-case scenario, we can update people on Twitter/Facebook if plans change.

I'm all set with my pink running shirt. I've got one of Mike's Star Wars toques I'm going to wear too - because what kind of Canadian would I be, without a toque? Let's hope it doesn't POUR like the 10k in WDW last year!

I'm so excited for this trip. But have you looked at all the ride closures while we're there? Tis the season I guess. Haunted Mansion and Jungle Cruise are down as they remove the holiday overlays, plus all the closures related to Star Wars land, and no more Paint The Night parade... not to mention closures over at DCA with the Tower of Terror, Grizzly River Run, etc. We'll make the best of it though! I'm hoping to try some new restaurants and do some stuff I've never done before!

Can someone summarize the plans in a single (separate) post - then I will link to it from the homepage. I realize this is much less formal than our WDW events but I believe it's a much smaller group.

It was pouring for a good part of the Tinkerbell 10k last year. It wasn't fun standing around in the rain before the race started but luckily it ended in a light drizzle for the most part.

I will caution everyone that it has been raining a LOT down here lately and the ground at Disneyland becomes dangerously slippery when wet. It is not like the material used at WDW. It gets super slick! So, if it does rain, slow down! A lot of people fell on the course during the 10k and I slipped a few times...
