Hi Andrea and welcome to planDisney! I absolutely love
runDisney events! In fact, I ran my first
Dopey Challenge this past marathon weekend in January. There’s just something about the theming, running through the parks, and the overall positive energy of the
runDisney community. Now, let’s race on over to your question…on your mark, get set, GO!
For the
runDisney Virtual Series, such as the upcoming one starting in June,
runDisney has stated that participants track their own times and that completion is
based on the honor system. After registration, you’ll receive a finisher metal along with instructions on how to enter your time on the finisher website in order to download your race certificate. You’ll also typically receive a digital race tool kit with some printable mile markers!
The Virtual Series for this summer is themed to
Hercules,
The Emperor’s New Groove, and
Pocahontas, along with
A Goofy Movie-themed challenge. Registration for these races will be coming soon, so be on the lookout for further updates!
As we approach the finish, I just want to thank you for your
runDisney question and hope to see you at a race in the near future! The races at
Walt Disney World really amp up the fun and give you the satisfaction and sense of accomplishment when fellow park guests and Cast Members cheer you on and congratulate you. If you have any further questions about
runDisney or Disney vacations in general, please do not hesitate to
contact me and my fellow panelists here at planDisney!
Your pal,
Sean
