I think maybe I'm just plain old... In my mind, medals are round and metal-colored: gold, silver or bronze. On the one hand, I want to applaud the creativity shown in these, and on the other, I want to curse whoever decided rectangles were a good idea. But in the end, I honestly do not care about race medals for more than the 5 seconds when they're put around my neck. I'm still hoping for reduced registration by way of declining a medal someday, lol!

Oh, where's the 35th? I see the Epcot & World Showcase logo but is there something else?

oh Yes I agree nice touch for sure!I think it's just the logo, but I thought it was a nice touch.
You can transfer to the challenge if there are still spots open (for a fee, of course).Ok after looking at the medals again I have serious challenge medal envy. Why is there no way to turn a half registration into a challenge after the fact!?
All sorts of paces & people do the 5k from fast as can be runners to walkers to speed walkers to run/walkers. Lots of kids run it as well and families that stay together. Yes, you are broken out by time into corrals. The first, A corral, is your fastest pace and the last corral is your slowest pace (16 min/mile). There are 5 Corrals I think usually for the 5k. They go off of your pace you put at time of registration for putting you in the proper corrals, although sometimes it does seem kind of random with how they do this. The 5ks are so much fun!How many people do the 5k just at a fast walk? Is there many people that do that as a family? I assume the start groups separate by run times as not to drive the real marathoners crazy.
Quite a few people (to both questions).How many people do the 5k just at a fast walk? Is there many people that do that as a family? I assume the start groups separate by run times as not to drive the real marathoners crazy.
