Run Disney continues to improve all aspects of the running events including the buses to the on-course entertainment and cheering areas and the aid stations and swag! This is the most inclusive, energizing running weekend to participate in. If you enjoy Disney and running: Participate in Marathon Weekend!
A few areas to improve: 1. EXPO – especially on Wednesday and Disney specific Merch (very, very crowded and requires timed entry for Run Disney Merch). 2. Post Run Food – boxed snacks and banana after each DOPEY race and the snacks lacked appeal, especially considering the entry cost. 3. Race Shirts – improve the material, color choice and large block style designs. 4. Half Marathon and Marathon course: narrow pathway from Grand Floridian to Magic Kingdom creates a bottleneck and the Magic Kingdom parking lot is HORRIFIC as is the Blizard Beach parking lot.
The few facts of Run Disney races that must be reckoned with include early arrivals/bus rides and potentially long waits for the start. Without proof of time or with a slower proof of time, you have the potential of corral placement that can be frustrating due to the number of walkers and participants that do not adhere to race etiquette.
Overall, Run Disney exceeds expectations and continues to listen to feedback and make meaningful changes to enhance the experience.
