Greetings Sarah and welcome to planDisney!
I am proud to be a runDisney alum! My first ever race was after I turned 60 years old, so anyone can do it! Our family particularly enjoys the Princess Half Marathon weekend events. Our last Princess weekend my wife and two of my daughters ran the 5K with me, and my middle daughter completed the half marathon which fulfilled her long-time goal! We have been eyeing a chance to run in the
Disney Wine & Dine Half Marathon Weekend, and it is certainly on our bucket list for the near future!
Sarah, I do have some official policy news for you that might not be great news at this time for your non-refundable flight. All participants in the Disney Wine & Dine Half Marathon Weekend must attend the runDisney
Health & Fitness Expo at ESPN Wide World of Sports at least one day before their first event to pick up their race bib. There is no race-day check-in for bib pick-up. Since you are running in the 5K on October 23, 2026, you must pick up your bib before the expo ends at 8pm on Thursday, October 22, 2026. If your airline situation cannot be changed, I would contact runDisney to see if they can assist you in some way. Use the
online form on the runDisney web site or scroll to the bottom of
this page to use the phone number to talk with a friendly Cast Member at runDisney!
My wife was so excited this past week to receive her runDisney virtual 5K medals! The 2026 Kuzcotopia medal certainly put my wife in a new groove!
Sarah, once you get your issue solved, you will be blazing a trail and having a blast at the Wine & Dine 5K! Have an amazing adventure and don’t forget to enjoy a Mickey Bar or two!
Kurt
