Ready, Set, Run! It’s almost time for runners to arrive at Walt Disney World Resort and participate in one of the funnest race weekends runDisney has to offer. Exclusive Weekend merchandise was just revealed. Check it out here!
Wine and Dine Half Marathon Weekend
This year, runners will get to experience an all new course for the half marathon. Unfortunately, we will no longer run in three parks, but we will double dip in EPCOT.
Runners will also get to run through Galaxy’s Edge. I (Heather) am looking forward to running this new course! I loved the old course, but I do think this will be a fun and exciting change. Check all the weekend courses HERE.
Other changes to this weekend is the start of a virtual queue for runDisney merchandise. This is gathering mixed reviews as it puts everyone on even level, but I’m just hopeful there will be enough merchandise for the runners participating. Read about how the virtual queue will work HERE.
One thing has stayed the same. It is still the only runDisney event with a Post-Race Party! Check out all the details to the party HERE.
