My dearest friend is running her 1st Disney half. We're staying at the Poly and have Race Retreat and Chear Packages. I would love to see her at the castle, the 12 mark and the finish. Is this possible??? Any advice on how to do it?

Thanks and good luck to all,
Kristina

Monorail!! I THINK you'll be able to do it that way. The castle is around mile 10, I believe, and mile 12 is near the Grand Floridian, those will be fairly close together. The finish is at EPCOT, so you can catch the monorail there.

There is a whole section in the guidebook which can be found at the Disney marathon website, it's a PDF.

Yes you can.
My Dh did it for the Princess 1/2 and he saw me at the GF and finish line and I came in at 1:04.
The monorail would be the way to go, I would not attempt to drive it.

Just a quick correction - since your friend is running the half (not the full), the castle is around mile 6, and the GF/Poly around mile 7-8.

Wouldn't want you to miss her!

plus adding.

Monorail to MK getting there at least 45 minutes prior to her expected time.

Plan on Main Street as Mile 5

I would not expect that you really want to see her at 12 since you have the ChEAR pack. After you see her on Main immediately head to Epcot and work to find a seat in the bleachers at the finish.
