Exciting! Probably means runners will run by the Honda Center during the half too.

Hey - There are two main courses that Disneyland used previously (both are in my original post). One goes around DL, then to Angel Stadium to the east and back to DL. The other goes around DL, then north do downtown Anaheim, and then back to DL. Who else got in? I was hoping to get into the DDD...

Anything near the Disneyland Hotel will be closest to the start/finish if it follows what they did in the past. Hotels on the corner of Ball and Walnut are usually where I look, the Holiday Inn and Suites or the Springhill Suites up there are both places I've stayed and would stay again. Not...

Looks like the last time I updated my numbers in the tracker was Jan 2020 after Dopey so I have to add: 3 Dopeys (‘21, ‘22, ‘23) - 145.8 miles 3 virtual 5ks - 9.3 miles Taking my new total to 761.5 magical miles! Congrats to all the runners!

I know I don't post much in the forums anymore but... good luck to everyone running! I'll be down there running my 10th Dopey and fingers crossed this weather holds, it's looking pretty great for running. Safe travels everyone!

Yeah that’s what I would’ve thought too. I’m interested to see if the finisher numbers drop on the official list after the results are “cleaned”. There may be some people still in that number that maybe started but didn’t finish but not sure right now.

I felt like the Half and Full were more crowded this year so I did some quick numbers to compare. Looks like the finisher percentage was up this year. Maybe more people made it to the start line? I don’t have DNS numbers so not sure 🤷‍♀️ 2019 Half Bibs/Finishers: 25,145/18,419 2020 Half...

Another 48.6 for me! Always a great time at Marathon Weekend!

Congrats to everyone that ran this weekend. I was happy to complete my 10th WDW Marathon (7th Dopey) & whoa man was that brutal. I wasn’t planning to race the marathon (sort of raced the half though!) but it was just hard. Also, for all the repeat WDW Marathon Weekenders, did the logistics just...

Not sure if you have already taken your trip or not but you can now indicate celebrations via the app. You just have to update it on your reservation online and honeymoon is one of the options!

Here’s the course map from 2012 with the early EPCOT loop for anyone who’s interested!

This was my first thought/hope! It makes the most sense given what they described... and would line up with some other ideas I have for my 10th WDW Marathon! They phased this out in 2012 and this marathon sold out so given current trends this type of course I *think* could handle the number of...

If the course changes, someone normally will dig up the USATF certification but it usually gets released on rundisney.com about a month out when waivers and corrals are posted.

Last year it seemed like they converted some Dopey spots into individual race registrations (or maybe it was some travel agent/charity bibs) and the races reopened later in the year. I’d say to keep checking!

I would love if they included something like but I don’t think they ever would even if they did increase registration prices like they do for Wine and Dine to include this extra. With declining registration numbers it’s only giving them less money to “plus” these events and I don’t think they...
