I thought I'd start the obligatory where are you staying thread?
I have no idea yet. I'm wavering between the Epcot area because it is awesome for 10K cheering and a moderate because it is less expensive and really easy to drive to the 5K start.

Probably Coronado Springs for us. We had a great stay there last summer and my bride has made the request to stay there for marathon weekend.

Depends on what's open at the 7 month mark. Hoping for The Boardwalk. So close for 10K cheering.

Many visits. Live 20 minutes from the parks.
Work at Universal Studios in Diagon Alley. Ollivanders/ wand magic.
Oh well.... The Boardwalk and Beach Club studio villas are all booked. There are 1 bedrooms left at Boardwalk.
Would it be better to get on the monorail line or either AKL or OKW?

Oh, that's a bummer, though I can't say that I'm particularly surprised. I was hoping to change from AKL to one of those resorts at the 7 month window.

Ok, so last year we stayed at Wilderness Lodge DVC, this year I dunno. Any suggestions? I'm in the Dopey so unfortunately,staying close to cheer locations isn't that high on my priority. Seeing them, we'll heck ya.

How was transportation at WL last year? I stayed there the previous year for Princess weekend and the buses were slower than the other resorts.

Wilderness Lodge was great. Bus was only about 15-2 min. We stayed at Caribbean Beach 2 years ago for the 20th anniversary and that was a nightmare bus ride.
Since it's just me next year I'm thinking of POFQ. It's the only moderate I've never stayed at so I figured I would cross it off the list.
We stayed at OKW in a studio last year and the buses were terrible. We would regularly wait 30-45 minutes for buses to the parks! Thank goodness Justin, Dawn, Ian and Gary took pity on us with their rental cars!!!
I hope I have better luck at POFQ this time.

LOL not a problem.
We are going to be silly and try to stay at Poly studios. We don"t own there so gonna have to wait for 7 month window. Since we are both running the 10K, not having a room near Boardwalk won't be an issue.
Does anyone own at poly? was wondering if there is still availability that week.

I'm trying something for a trip on october, we shall see if it works. I have a Poly Studio booked on cash, minimum cash down. Next week I get my points and I'm going to try the swap. Should work.
Just an alternate idea for you to try.

Cannot beat the Magic Kingdom area when it comes to cheering for the half and full marathon. We will, or I should say, Mel will drive to the 5k & 10k cheering squad. :cheer:
