I had a ball running last year dressed as Jessie from Toy Story!
Here is my post from my Wine and Dine race last year.
Did you register before Wine and Dine sold out?

I am passing on Wine & Dine this year. I decided to run the WDW marathon, and it’s just too much in a short period of time, especially since I will also be doing the Space Half. I can’t wait for next year, though!

I missed it! It’s already sold out and at least 4 of the charity groups are also sold out! I’m waiting to hear back from the other two. If you know if anyone willing to sell their spot, I’m interested. I’m so bummed, I heard it sold out in 27 hours! Who knew?!?

Also check the travel providers. If you book a hotel room with them you can also register 🙂

Hi Susie. Check with the travel providers listed on the runDisney website. They also have bibs. RunDisney however doesn’t allow bib transfers or selling them, so I wouldn’t go that route. Good luck!

We are very late to the game but my son has been working hard to train for his first half. Silly me I promised him a ticket to a disney race. If anyone has a bib they won’t use, maybe we could strike a deal.

I wouldn’t recommend buying a bib from someone because runDisney will ban both of you if caught, but depending on the race you are interested in there are tons of charities and travel providers that have bibs still available for sold out races 🙂
