I upgraded to an AP at Dark Side, since I knew I'd be coming for Marathon weekend. BEST feeling.

Same. I threw in Wine and Dine to get my passholder's moneys worth.

I have to say, Minnie's medal is adorable and I am so excited to earn this one. (And Dopey too of course, but Minnie's just has that extra special wow)

I wonder if the ribbon colors will give us insight to the colors of the shirts.

5K Pluto -- Green and Yellow
10K Minnie - Red with white dots
HM Donald - Yellow and Blue
M Mickey - black and grey
Goofy - Green, Orange, and Blue
Dopey - lime Green and purple

Guesses for shirts

10K - Red
HM - Blue

Does the marathon medal have a double ribbon? I can't tell if I'm seeing double or what.

Oh wow good call yeah what's happening there?

All I know is I am having major regrets not signing up for the 10k... I love that medal! Don't get me wrong, love the Half one I am going to get too but I want them both now!

I plan on doing wine and dine next year since I have an AP now.

Maybe one is the legacy ribbon?

Good catch! Maybe ones a legacy ribbon? So weird!

Hey @rteetz get out of my head!!

 

[Krandor]

Possible. From these shots they look pretty smiliar except for color.

Great minds think alike!

Well given the SWLS decision, I'm probably going to extend my stay now. Was planning to come home on Monday so I could get ready to go to CA but now considering staying another day or two. This is my second dopey and I know now what Sat/Sun are like so thinking I may plan 4 park days for Thu/Fri and the Mon/Tue and just relax and rest Sat/Sun.

If there is one positive for cancellelation of light side, I have a little more flexibility in what I do for marathon weekend now.

We just roll our fast passes on Sat/Sun ... relaxation and meandering the rest of those days!

Last Dopey I did go to the park most of the day after the half and don't think that was a great idea. After the full I didn't feel like doing anything but soaking in the pool...lol So wound up using my planned sunday ticket for a half day on monday before heading home. Got back late doing that but it was worth it.

Interesting that the medals (I assume all with the exception of Dopey but can only actually see Goofy Challenge and 5k) have 25 years Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend on the inside.

Goofy makes sensse since the marathon is part of goofy. The 10k I would expect to have the 5 year thing like dopey does.
