Hiya Bella,
Thank you so much for stopping by planDisney with your
runDisney Marathon Weekend question! First and foremost, how exciting that you are planning to lace up your sneakers and run a marathon at
Disney World in 2029. As someone who has been part of the runDisney community for more than 10 years, I can tell you that you are in for such an incredible experience. There is truly nothing like the energy of a runDisney race weekend. From picking up your race bib at
ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex to hearing complete strangers cheer you on along the course, the magic carries you all the way to that finish line.
So, Bella, let’s run right into your question! Registration for runDisney races typically opens several months before race weekend, often around 7 to 9 months in advance, and usually begins at 10:00 AM Eastern Time. You can register right on the
runDisney website. When your registration day arrives, I recommend being ready to go with all of your information nearby, including your address and payment details.
And trust me, those race spots can disappear faster than Dash in a sprint to the finish line! I highly recommend signing up for
runDisney emails and keeping an eye on the runDisney website so you do not miss any important registration announcements. That way, you will be ready to hit the ground running as soon as registration opens.
Bella, I hope this helps you feel a little more prepared to begin planning for your magical miles. If you have any additional questions along the way, please come back and visit us again.
See you at the starting line,
Christina
