2015 Race Dates

When are dates released?

Each one seems to be released after shortly after that race has finished. So if you are looking for marathon 2015, you'll have to wait to winter 2014. That said though, the races are very consistent. They really seem to always be the same weekend each year. The Wine and Dine moved around recently, but there was still a race on the first weekend of Food and Wine, it just wasnt that particular race (it is now the ToT).

Thanks! I noticed that the dates seemed pretty consistent for the years that I could find, but I didn't know if that was a fluke or not.

I might be mistaken but I think when I did the marathon weekend in Disney world this year , I had seen somewhere on a flyer the dates of the following years race. I remember because this up coming year it falls on my birthday and I think I remember saying how awesome that was...while I was in Disney this year.

I could be mistaken. No matter..if it wasn't during than as the other poster stated,,it was very shortly after.

Generally, the 'official' date for the next race is in the program for the this race.

Plan on marathon weekend 2015 being the weekend of Jan 8-11. PHM the weekend of Feb 20-22.

The other dates still have a little variability.

As always, "Dates and times are subject to change". This is a disclaimer that Disney used a couple years back when they re-arrainged the fall Florida schedule. The original few Wine and Dines were over the weekend currently occupied by the current 10 miler. They re-ordered the schedule after publishing the W&D date in a few race programs. If one is looking to run a race do not make a non-cancellable reservation until the date that entries open.

That's about what I thought. 1/7 is probably the first day the expo opens = the "official" start of Marathon Weekend. YAY!

Call me old school or hard to change. I am still used to the weekend being 4 days long. You are very correct as Disney counts the expo days with the weekend.

Actually, if Disney continues with the Dopey, it will make the transition weekend (the one that they move back) a little difficult to predict.

As it stands now the marathon weekends should be

Jan 8-12, 2014
Jan 7-11, 2015
Jan 6-10, 2016
Jan 4-8, 2017
Jan 10-14, 2018**

Historically, the marathon has been held on 1/7 when that weekend rolls over but I cannot see the resort trying to intermingle loads of runner and New Years hang overs from the 3rd through 6th.
