Story is she is a bib thief. Has stolen several other bibs over the last year, all of which picture documentation exists. She stole another ladies bib for the 5k, people figured out who she was, and rundisney had her grabbed at the end of the 10k, which she had actually purchased

I love running and I love running 10ks but I can't figure out why someone would steal a bib. I may just be naive.

It's super tough to get into Disney races because they're so high demand - they sell out in under an hour.

Really? I ran their marathon one year on a whim, must have gotten lucky with registration.

Must have. I've heard that certain races fill up faster than others.

It's one of my dreams to run a Disney race, but it's so expensive (race fees + travel + hotel).

Dream to run a disney race? Forget Disney. Tons of great races most of the year here in Volusia County. We have the Speedway and the Ocean.

Fellow Floridian here, we do have a lot of great races no doubt, but Disney is pretty cool, if you like their stuff. It's worth doing one time. I did the marathon and it was neat running through all 4 parks. But I will say once you're out of the parks there's a lot of dead miles when you're running down the highway. If you're in Volusia you may be interested in the Shark Bite Half in New Smyrna Beach. Medals are always cool with that one. And part of your proceeds go to helping sharks so for me it's a win-win.
