RunDisney Virtual Challenge

[Lucyjane45xxx]

Sorry didn’t know where to post this one, I’m not usually one to post about physical activity!

I really want to enter the RunDisney virtual series this year as I’m trying to do more running and this is a good incentive but just wanted to see if anyone else has done it. Registration isn’t cheap and it says if you are outside of the US there will be additional shipping charges for the medals. Does anyone know roughly how much this was from last year?

If anyone did it last year any opinions would be great!

I don't know the answer, but am also interested in doing this! Hopefully someone knows the answer.

A quick Google found this in relation to a 2018 virtual challenge:

"In addition, medals shipped outside the U.S. will require an international shipping charge of $15."

Thank you. My brain failed to suggest google at this time in the morning.

Just noticed your countdown as well - have a great time and hope that Storm Dennis doesn't affect your flights.

Unfortunately for international virtual runners Disney won't be posting them outside of the USA this year

Hoping for us internationals that they reduce the cost of the run proportionately but I can't see it happening.

I'll still be running as these runs give me the motivation to run in addition to my normal gym routine, but will miss not having medals.

Could one of the parcel collection people in the US get these and forward on?

My reading of they're response to my question (I'd heard rumours on Twitter about Disney not shipping internationally) would suggest that one of the parcel collection people could have the medals sent to them to forward on.

My reading is that as long as the shipping address is a US thats OK as long as not a PO or APS box address.

As another option, have you looked at Virtual Runner? They do lots of amazing medals that you can earn eith a % of the fee going to charity...virtualrunneruk/

It's a pity that they can't do it directly anymore, but at least there is an option. I have been keeping track of the Virtual Runner ones as well but haven't signed up to any. Maybe I should just save up to do Dopey again...

I'm currently doing theconqueror.events/route66/ with some friends - I'll still do the Disney one's but shame about the lack of direct delivery now.
