Are you a runner? Do you participate in runDisney events?

Have you ever been in any of the runDisney races in Disney World? Believe it or not, there USED to be runDisney events in Disneyland, too, but those paused back in 2017. However, Disney has announced that runDisney events will return to Disneyland!
Disney made the announcement today at the D23 Expo that runDisney races would return to Disneyland in 2024. That’s plenty of time to start training and getting ready for the first event!

Participants in runDisney events get a chance to run through Disney Parks and see them in a way they’ve never seen them before (usually VERY early in the morning). There are usually special events during the day, too — and guests and characters come out to cheer on runners. There are also MEDALS!

Disclosure: In nearly all circumstances, Disney Food Blog writers and photographers pay full price for their own travel, hotel, food, beverage, and event tickets. We do this because it’s important to us as journalists to ensure not only that we give you unbiased opinions, but also that you can trust us to do so since we’re paying our own way. On rare occasions, when we are invited by a company to attend a preview as media, and when we choose to accept that invitation, we will always make you, our readers, aware of that situation. We were invited by Disney to attend D23 Expo as media. Note that when we attend events as media we are 1) Not required to review that event/food on any of our channels, and 2) Not required to review that event/food favorably. You can always count on DFB to give you a 100% unbiased and honest review of any event that we attend, food that we eat, or beverage that we drink. You can see more in our Disclosure Policy. Thank you for reading. — AJ
