Race weekend is just over three months away! This will be the last in-person race of the 2021-2022 season.

The event’s theme will change each year. So for the inaugural event, we will see some of our favorite races returning! Take a look at these finisher medals:

The 5K will be nighttime run and scavenger hunt through Disney’s Animal Kingdom! I love the compass inspired finisher medal to go along with the scavenger hunt theme.

The 10k has a “Ratatouile” inspired course as they run around Walt Disney World. Look at Remy in the corner. He’s so cute!

The Tower of Terror 10 Miler becomes a morning race! Runners will race through 10 un-scary miles miles through the Walt Disney World Resort. I love that they are bringing back this popular race distance.

I hope they still have it finishing with Tower of Terror in the Background (fingers crossed!).

Think you got what it takes to do all three races? Runners can complete the challenge and earn a FOURTH medal. These runners will complete a total of 19.3 miles.

Can’t run in person? runDisney still offers a virtual option. Read HERE for my experience with the Virtual Princess Half Marathon Weekend. These medals are beautiful! I wish all you runners participating good luck and happy training!
