Yep, it's true. We braved the Disney Marathon 2010 this past weekend! Who would have thought that Florida would get colder than Colorado and snow while we're there? We definately didn't. Race day started at 2:45am and included buses, garbage bags (to block the 20 mph wind)and fireworks. It was a warm 27 degrees up until about the last hour of the race. We started at 5:50am and were definately on the lookout for additional clothing to layer on our already 3 layered pants and sweatshirts. Hats, gloves and scarves were a necessity. There were 25,000 runners and 22 aide stations. The water was freezing cold and actually created ice patches all along the race path.
We started our 26.2 mile journey at Epcot, then wound our way to the Magic Kingdom where Peter Pan's gang, Donald, Goofy, Minnie and a few other characters met us. Yes, you stop and take your picture with the characters along the way. How fun is that?! After the Magic Kingdom we wound around to the Animal Kindgom and Disney Studios. Our run ended at Epcot where you take a final lap around the countries walkway. It was the coolest race (literally) we've ever done. But it was a great run and worth the time. Even though we almost froze (and probably left with severe head colds), Disney is the way to go.
