Disney World has been open for guests for nearly a year following the closures in 2020, but all in-person runDisney events have been suspended. While virtual, at-home events have taken place, runners have anxiously awaited for the marathons to once again take place in Orlando.
At long last, we finally have some exciting news to share after Disney dropped a little teaser video yesterday!
Disney has announced today that in-person runDisney marathons will be returning to Disney World this fall to kick off the runDisney 2021-2022 season!
The four races that will take place this season (in person!!!) are:
- Disney Wine & Dine Half Marathon Weekend powered by AfterShokz: November 4-7, 2021
- Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend: January 5-9, 2022
- Disney Princess Half Marathon Weekend: February 24-27, 2022
- runDisney Springtime Surprise Weekend presented by Otterbox: March 31-April 3, 2022
runDisney has also announced that this year might have some modified aspects of the events in response to the global health crisis, but that some new offerings will be available too. We’ll have more info for you soon!
