Run Disney throws some of the best races / parties on foot anywhere. I’ve run the 10K and half Marathon at Disneyland in the past and it’s really a BLAST. But, I know a lot of runners are coming from out of town or this is your first race – so I have some suggestions to share.
1. get to the expo early and give yourself time to walk around and check everything out. There is a ton of Camiseta Sanfrecce Hiroshima great Run Disney gear plus so numerous great booths to check out. some of my favorites are HeavyMedalz, sparkle athletic and ProCompression.

Also – you will need your ID to pick up your bib. Don’t forget it!
2. element in all the walking you’ll be doing before the race. If you are at Disneyland to delight in the theme parks you are going to be on your feet for hours and hours before the race. Make sure you allow time to rest and put your feet up.
You have to prioritize how much you want to delight in Disneyland – which is awesome and fun and memorable with the race – which is also all of those things.
3. fuel and hydrate. Unless you have a churro cart at your house (in which case can I come over?) you are probably going to be eating different things Camiseta US Sassuolo from your typical diet. pack snacks and plenty of water. keep in mind what your body typically likes eating before a race. If your stomach is a steel cauldron of food love (like mine) delight in all the kettle corn you want, if you need to eat pizza without sauce before a race element that into your pre-race plans.

4. consider a costume. A lot of people dress up for Run Disney races – all distances, all locations. You don’t have to, but it’s fun! plus there are tons of photo ops during the race so you might want to be dressed up for those.
I scored my costume from sparkle athletic today at the expo! any guesses?
Stop by their booth at the expo or you can purchase online!
5. Pre-Race Fuel. Some say breakfast is the most essential meal of the day – but I say pre-race fuel is the most essential of the year. even if you can eat whatever you want before race day it’s a good idea to pack the meal you ate before long runs on race day.
Tip: some of the restaurants at downtown Disney will be open early for runners and spectators.
6. start your engines!! Disney races start EARLY! plan getting to the start line with plenty of time to hit the porta potties and find your corral. Whether you are staying on Disney property or a local hotel or at home – plan your route to the start line ahead of time because some streets will be closed and there will be big crowds.
7. delight in the sights and characters! Disney races are awesome because you get to run through the theme parks. plus they have characters set up for photo ops throughout the course. You can’t look up what characters will be out or where they’ll be and that’s part of the fun – keep your eyes peeled! When you see a character or location you like it’s alright to stop and take a picture.
Tip: because the races start so early it will still be dark at the beginning of the race. Make sure your phone or video camera has the flash on OR can take good night time pictures.
8. Celebrate! You did it!! now it’s time to delight in all that training and hard work. communicate Camiseta Olympique Marseille with your family, friends, cheerleaders, dog…where to meet up after the race. keep your race medal on all day. eat well. rest up. and delight in that post-race glow.
