Star Wars Half


Woo Hoo we got all registered this morning for the Star Wars Half Marathon Weekend.  I am so excited.  Last year the web page wasn't working so we had to go through the facebook page but today it worked just fine.  I had everything all set up on the computer at 8:50am and was ready at exactly 9 am.  I had two different web browsers open, chrome and IE so I was able to register me through one and the kiddo through another while the hubby registered himself on a tablet.

We never had to get in a queue to register so that was nice, normally you have to wait in line for your turn but we must have hit it just right.  It took about 10 minutes for all three of us to get registered.  The hubby and I are doing the Rebel Challenge and the kiddo is joining us for the 10K.  Even though it went pretty smooth, right after I got the kiddo registered for the 10K I went back just to see where everything was at and the 10K & the Kids Races were on hold, which basically meant they were sold out.  We were so lucky to get the kiddo registered.  Currently the 5K. 10K & Kids Races are sold out!!!

If you want to register for any Run Disney races I always suggest you be prepared, get the web page up, know your login and password to your Active account, or just be prepared to make one.  Have your credit card ready to go, and know if you are going to order any of the extras.  We usually only buy the pins or necklace..  If I could see what the jackets looked like or if they sold I Did It shirts I would probably be all over it I just don't like not buying it without seeing it.

Now we are looking into hotels.  I am not sure where we are going to stay.  Right now with the discount we could stay at the Grand Californian Hotel for only about $155 more than the Disneyland Hotel and only about $283 more than offsite.  I am not sure if it's worth it or not.  I LOVE the Disneyland hotel and the Grand Californian to me just doesn't seem to have that fun Disney Magic to it.  However, I have never seen such a small difference in the other hotels and Grand Californian.  What do you guys think?  Where would you stay?  Now it's just time to start planning and training.
