Jessica Murphy's thoughts:

I've always wanted to do the Disney Marathon and decided to sign-up for the Half as well to do the Goofy.

The entire weekend was extremely well run and organized. The pre/during/post race details were also extremely well managed.

WHAT TO LOVE:
Aid Stations - Amazingly well run and staffed. Powerade before water. Friendliest volunteers ever! They were thanking US for running!

Course Scenery - I didn't mind the highway roads and when you did get into the parks it got VERY exciting!! Plus there were tons of volunteer cheer stations throughout the course!

Medal - Disney does an amazing job. The medal cannot be beat!

Post-race - Tons of food, hydration etc and it never felt over crowded.

Only thing I would mention is I didn't gear check so I had a lot to carry between water, Powerade, box of food, banana, and fruit pouch. Loved all the post-race goodies but a bag would've helped :) And some of the characters early on could use extra light for pics (my Buzz Lightyear pics turned out too dark!).

Hope to make it back again!
