I'm writing this review after almost 2 years of the Disneyland races being cut. I am still so sad! There's something so special about running in Disneyland that just doesn't compare. I first did this race as my first runDisney in 2013, so I think that's why this particular one has always been my favorite. The expo is always full of anything to break your wallet from shoes, clothes, running snacks, headbands, garmins - you name it! You spend about the first 6 miles going through Disneyland and California Adventures and then the second half is running through Anaheim. I know you think I might say the best part is the castle, but actually it's not. The BEST, most touching and emotional mile is 9 where the Red Hat Ladies are lining the streets cheering, high fiving and giving hugs. I cry every single time. If this race ever comes back, I will have my credit card ready!
