DisneyWorld Goofy - 2013

Postby Ken B » Thu Mar 01, 2012 12:22 pm

I had heard that registration for the Goofy for 2013 would open today. Their web page has nothing on it about registration for any events in 2013 at the moment. Has anyone any more up-to-date information?

Still haven't decided if I'm doing goofy 2013 or not. Waiting for my running buddy to make my mind up. If she goes, I go. If not I'll be running in 2014 when the local running group goes. On the plus side, a room is reserved should this years decision be a late one :D

After chatting with Jody, last weekend at the ATB Race Weekend Expo, I am now torn between a Goofy 5-peat in 2013 and the Run 2 Cruise at the end of January .. :shock: :? The price point is relatively good for a 7 day all inclusive cruise from Puerto Rico and, in around the Caribbean ... :shifty:

It'll sure be an eventful year with the 20th anniversary. Nice that there is a discount. We went down this past January and ran. Weather was great as opposed to 2010 when we went. Had an awesome time.

Congrats to those who have registered and those planning to. And Wow! a 5-peater on Goofy...way to go!!

WestJet currently has a seat sale that ends tonight ... $158 plus taxes, etc each for Sat/Tues/Wed travel, $199 for Sun/Friday Travel and $179 for Mon/Thurs travel ... couldn't resist, especially with the limited direct flights from Ottawa remaining available ... :shifty:

And, from a recent FB Update, it appears that the main focus for 2013 will be for Mickey's 20th Anniversary and that Chip & Dale Relay should return in 2014 .. Considering the Goofy 15th is in 2015, I figure that they need something extra for 2014, eh !!! :wink:

HCcD, in your past experiences has the size of the shirts changed over the years. WHEN I register, I'm thinking of going with a small. My 2010 shirt is a medium and is big. Just don't want to order a small and have it not fit.
Looks like I'm going' Goofy (again) in 2013!!!

I believe that they only have unisex sizing now :think: :think: And, I always order the Medium, and it is definitely on the roomy side of things ... Ordered the Medium moreso for the length of the sleeves, in general ... Champion is the supplier ....

Hope that helps out ....

eta: You planning on running the Goofy this year? :shifty: :wink:

It is definitely unisex. I always order small and it is still very roomy. If it helps I wear small at gap, old navy, etc to help with comparison. I ordered medium the year after I had my son thinking I would be bigger and I was swimming in it and ended up throwing it out.
