A BIG event is coming up soon in Disney World!

The 2024 Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend takes place from January 3rd through the 7th, 2024. Now, we have a FIRST LOOK at some of the merchandise coming to the resort for the races!
You might think that we run the Disney World marathon because we’re all super into fitness. Actually, we do it for the merchandise and the BLING.

Participants in the 2024 Disney World Marathon Weekend races get shirts and medals for free (they’re included in the cost of the race), but there are some more race-themed souvenirs available at Disney World if you want to buy extra mementos of your accomplishment!

You can grab a jacket with the Marathon Weekend logo on the back…
