I ran both years and it was fun! I'm pretty sure that there are no strollers aloud on this run. FUN! to take pictures with the various characters as well... GOOD LUCK!! Super fun!

I completely agree with Omi. This is a race done with Disney grandeur. I am planning to run the race again too! I traveled from Pennsylvania and our family made a vacation out of it. Really, really fun!

It's a fun race, well organized, lots of Disney characters, ok crowd support and I really liked it. I'll do it again in 2012 all things being equal in life. I think 16 min mile is very doable with all the picture ops and I took a lot of them. I took my granddaughter and she ran the kid race for the 2 to 4 year olds. I'll take my other little unit the year after next. The expo was fun, I can definitely recommend it. We flew in from VT. I'd say go for it. The mileage signs are great, btw.

I know this thread is a bit older, but was wondering if anyone is still on that could talk about their experiences with this run. I am thinking about signing up for the 2011 race. It would be my second half marathon and I would be flying all the way across the US to get to it. The fee is only $120 if you sign up before August 8th, 2010.

So what were your experiences?

Was the 16 min mile doable with all the appeals to stop for pictures with the characters?

How much entertainment was along the way?

They say you do not need to purchase a ticket, but really- should you? Same for Expo Day?

Has anyone done it twice? How was it the second time?

Thanks for all your help!

Yep, I'm running, and my granddaughter (almost 4) is running the 100 yard dash. Can't wait to meet you guys. Can't wait to see that medal.

That's great, CurlyJ, that's a pretty awesome 6th year birthday surprise. I'd have a hard time keeping it a secret!

Yep, we're registered for the party too. Can't wait, and it's going to be a long wait.
