Disneyland Welcomes 14,000 runners for Disneyland Half Marathon Weekend

The Disneyland Resort welcomes runners from around the world as well as locals for the Disney Half Marathon Weekend which started today. The Disneyland Resort is recording 14,000 registered participants taking to the streets of Disneyland Resort and the city of Anaheim for the fifth anniversary of “The Happiest Race on Earth.' According to the Disneyland Resort, the park will come alive this weekend!

The Disneyland Half Marathon features a course unlike any other in the world.  Passing through the two Disneyland Resort theme parks – Disneyland and Disney California Adventure – and the streets of Anaheim, participants will experience a race full of inspiration that only Disney can provide, including live entertainers and Disney characters at the start line and along the route. The road race has become popular for its flat loop course and mild climate – ideal for personal best times. Hosted by the Disneyland Resort and the City of Anaheim, it reached registration capacity – for the fifth consecutive year – in late spring.
“We are so proud to celebrate the fifth anniversary of the Disneyland Half Marathon,” said Disneyland Resort President George A. Kalogridis.  “This unique event has become a tradition of fun and memories for thousands of athletes and their families.  We share the success of this event with the city of Anaheim.  Since 2006, we have jointly brought more than 80,000 participants from around the world to the Anaheim resort area.”

While the race participants have been choosen, you can definitely still go down to the Resort and cheer on the runners if you want to see the race on Sunday. With a 13.1-mile half marathon to run, anybody would welcome a crowd cheering them on! In addition to the actual race, there are other events spectators can enjoy (as well as a few rides.)
