runDisney
It is so much fun to visit the most Magical Place on Earth, but imagine running through it! runDisney gives runners of all abilities the opportunity to RUN through Walt Disney World! runDisney races offer a race experience like no other. Runners get Disney magic at every mile, including character sightings and other race entertainment.
runDisney races are among my favorite races! Even though these race may be treated more like a victory lap, they are so much fun! I (Heather) know I can’t wait for my next runDisney race. Check out my latest runDisney race over Marathon Weekend.
The best part of runDisney races? There are different distances so there is a race for almost anyone. They also are welcoming to runners of all levels! You will see runners and walkers out there putting in those Magical Miles.

Race Day Transportation
For runners staying at a Monorail Resort, they must take bus transportation as there will be NO Monorail Transportation for the 10K or 10-Miler races that begin in EPCOT.
There will be no monorail transportation for the 10K or 10-Miler races
This is important to note as for the Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend and the Princess Half Marathon Weekend the Monorail was operating for runners to get to the start line. The Skyliner will also not be operating for runners to reach the start line on race day as this drops you at the International Gateway.
What do you think about the Monorail not operating for runners to reach the start? Do you think it was easier to use than the buses? Let us know on the Kenny the Pirate Facebook page. Don’t forget to join the KtP crew page too!
