New runDisney Disneyland 10K Just Announced

[Melanie]

runDisney just announced via their Facebook page and YouTube that there will be an addition to the Disneyland Half Marathon Weekend for 2013 (August 30-September 1).

The announcement reads:

runDisney requests you join us for a very merry un-birthday 'ten k' party in a wonderful land, Disneyland Resort, on August the thirty-first of two thousand and thirteen.

Don't be late for this very important date, registration opens on January the twenty-second of two-thousand and thirteen.

Here is the YouTube video.

So essentially, it sounds to me like they are putting what's equivalent to WDW's Goofy Challenge on the west coast. No details out yet, but I wonder if there will be a special medal if you run both?

Oh, and a tidbit on the registration date. It's been established that those running the WDW Marathon events will have first/early signups for the Disneyland Half Weekend at the Expo in January. I would think this race would be included as well.

ETA: I'm seeing now that they are indeed calling it the Dumbo Challenge if you do both the 10K and the Half Marathon, and there will be a special medal.
