Hi Indah!
Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel. I actually just got back from a stay at
Disney Animal Kingdom Lodge and I think you are absolutely going to love it! I must recommend you check out
Boma- Flavors of Africa while you are there. It would make a great post-race dinner and make sure you don't miss out on the
Zebra Cupcakes, they are divine!
I'm glad to tell you that for
Star Wars Half Marathon- The Dark Side all Walt Disney World Resort hotels are considered host hotels and will provide complimentary transportation to all race weekend events. So whether you are heading to
ESPN Wide World of Sports for the Disney Health & Fitness Expo or to the starting line, they'll have you covered! Just ask the Cast Member that checks you in where race transportation will be picking up from because it's usually a different location than the theme park buses.
Your family has two different options for chEARing you on. If they'd like to be up early with you they can board the runner bus in the morning. While it is definitely an early start, they'll have the option to move around and try and spot you at different points. If they'd rather snooze a little and catch you at the finish line they'll be able to take the complimentary resort transportation to
Epcot, where the half marathon will finish!
