Tie up those laces, racers, because the themes for the 2020 Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend have officially been announced by runDisney!
And from January 8-12, 2020…Disney’s throwing it back with retro-inspired race themes.
Classic Disney characters and a more vintage retro vibe will set the tone for the upcoming races.
The Fab Five will be joined by a couple of pals! Oswald the Lucky Rabbit will be featured in the Walt Disney World 10k (he made his debut for the 2019 5K), while Pluto will be back in action for the runDisney 5K.
And while we’re on the topic of NEW…Minnie Mouse herself will be co-hosting the Walt Disney World Marathon with her sweetheart, Mickey! You know Minnie — she’s always doing BIG things!
Goofy is going to be pretty busy this year as he will be hosting both Goofy’s Race and Half Challenge AND the runDisney Kids Races! And, of course, there is no one other than Dopey to represent the Dopey Challenge (all four races totaling up to 48.6 total miles)!
The 2020 Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend will take place from January 8 – 12, 2020. There are still a few spots available if you are interested in taking part in this weekend filled with fun. Click here to register or to learn more about runDisney events!
