    I wouldn't be surprised if there are still party spots available to have a very quiet late registration open at the expo. The Mouse never leaves any money on the table.

    Couple of quick capacity updates for you.

    WDW Marathon Weekend

    • WDW Marathon - 83% capacity (currently running almost a month and a half faster than the 2014 event!)
    • Race Retreat - Goofy/Dopey - 80% capacity

    Looks like the WDW Marathon is approaching sell-out. If you are thinking about running the 2015 WDW Marathon (sans Goofy Challenge), better not delay too much longer to register! And the Wine & Dine Half Marathon Pre-Taste Party is also just about at capacity as well.

    WDW Marathon Weekend


    • WDW Marathon - 90% capacity (currently running almost a month and a half faster than the 2014 event!)
    • Goofy Challenge - 60%
    • runDisney Kids Races - 50%
    • Race Retreat - Goofy/Dopey - 82% capacity



    Wine & Dine Half Marathon Weekend

    • Wine & Dine Pre-Taste - 96%

    Slowly ticking up closer to capacity, the 2015 WDW Marathon registration has now reached 92%. While we could be here for weeks I wouldn't count on it being open for too much longer.

    WDW Marathon Weekend

    • WDW Marathon - 92% capacity (2014 registration did not hit this number until July 2nd - registration may seem slow going now but it's moving at record speed!)

    Well, the WDW Marathon is quickly moving towards sell out as we've now hit 96% capacity. Poor Goofy. The one event everyone expected to sell out quickly for the 10th anniversary is still sitting at 60%. Guess if you have to choose between Dopey and Goofy, Dopey is the new WDW Weekend king of the challenges!

    • WDW Marathon - 96% capacity


    And a quick note. The Avenger's Super Hero Half Marathon Weekend Pasta Party in the Park finally found someone to buy the last remaining spots and is now SOLD OUT! Capacity had been sitting at 97% since 3/26/2014 which was the second day of registration!

    Looks like 2015 WDW Marathon registration is just about ready to close. As of this morning, capacity is at 99%. If you are looking at participating in the marathon (sans Goofy), this is probably your last call to register!

    Yes indeedy do - it is sold out. And poor Goofy only jumped up to 62% capacity. Guess even an anniversary isn't enough to compete with Dopey.

    Goofy's Race and a Half Challenge continues it's slow march to a sell-out with a jump to 65% capacity. So very odd to see it's the last open event especially being the 10th anniversary.

    ...and I bet it's going to slow down to a crawl now that the Star Wars event has been announced. Anyone who was on the fence will likely want to wait to do a brand new event just the following week.

    I'm betting you are spot on. Even the 2015 Castaway Cay Challenge managed to sell out faster than Goofy.

    The pererferal runDisney events are still slowly selling out but poor Goofy is just crawling to capacity. Bet runDisney didn't expect this result for a 10th anniversary event.

    Couple of quick updates and a question for you.

    Do you find it odd that runDisney isn't touting Goofy's 10th anniversary event more? Everything still seems to be so Dopey-centric.

    Wine & Dine Half Marathon Weekend

    • runDisney Kids Races - 65%


    Tower of Terror 10-Miler

    • runDisney Kids Races - 60%


    Star Wars Half Marathon Weekend

    • Wookiee Welcome Party - 71%


    And if you haven't yet seen the 2014 Tower of Terror 10-Miler Weekend medals, make sure to stop by the ToT MousePlanet discussion thread to see a picture of them. The 10-Miler remained the same but the 5k is getting a lot of attention which is especially amusing for a rubber medal!

    Don't forget general registration opens for the Princess Half Marathon Weekend on Tuesday July 15th @ 9:00 a.m. PST / 12:00 p.m. EST. As of Sunday July 13th, only the Glass Slipper Challenge is sold out in early AP registration so if you have multiple folks or events to sign up for on Tuesday, I would suggest GSC first then work your way through the rest.

    Well, after all the excitement of Princess Half Marathon Weekend registration opening yesterday, there are actually a few updates on other runDisney events including a bit of movement on poor old Goofy. Rumor has it there were so many double and triple booked people yesterday that while the Princess Half, 10k, and GSC are showing up as Sold Out, a few lucky folks were able this morning to secure spots as those extra spots were refunded and put back into the queue.

    Looks like releasing the Frozen theme for the 5k may have helped with registration. It jumped to 65% capacity today.

    To put it into perspective - the 2014 Cinderella 5k didn't hit 65% capacity for almost six months. The 2015 Frozen 5k made it there in just over a day. What a difference a year makes.

    Update 7/17 a.m. - 2015 Frozen 5k is now at 70% capacity.

    Update 7/17 p.m. - 2015 Frozen 5k is now at 75% capacity - runDisney Kids Races is at 61%

    The Princess Half Marathon Weekend Frozen 5k and runDisney Kids Races are moving closer to reaching capacity MUCH sooner than in previous years.

    Frozen Royal Family 5k Fun Run (somehow that just reads wrong...) is at 85% capacity. The 2014 5k event didn't hit 85% until January 24th!

    runDisney Kids Races (also Frozen-themed) is at 65% capacity. The 2014 kids races didn't reach 60% until November 14th.

    Pretty amazing what early-announcing the theme (and making sure it's a popular choice) can do for race registration!

    One quick update for you this morning. As expected, the Disney Princess Frozen-themed 5k Family Fun Run has officially SOLD OUT!

    To recap, the 2014 Cinderella-themed 5k sold out in 8 months, 4 days (the theme was not announced until close to the end of registration).

    The 2015 Frozen-themed 5k sold out in 14 days. Wow...
