Broad Street Run 2026

I’m dreading that subway ride from the stadiums to the start. Packed like sardines would be a pleasure in comparison.

Is it worse than NYC rush hour? I remember when one would have to wait for mulitple trains to pass to even get on. And then even when you made it onto the train, it felt like you were touching no less than five other individuals.

Not worse than NYC, but it is a long ride from the stadium to the start (33 min). They have trains every 8 minutes, I just wait for the next one to ensure I have a seat for the journey.

Ive never been on a NYC subway so I can’t compare. However, I can say that I’ve been on the subway to BSR many times where it would’ve broken the laws of physics if they were able to press one more person into the train. Literally standing in the middle of the aisle with people pressing on you from all directions and nothing to hold onto for close to an hour. I rode the subway in Boston everyday for years and there was never anything even close. I’m trying to figure out a way to arrive close to the start so I don’t have to deal with it. It’s a major damper on an otherwise fun event. I know that people dislike the bus transportation to Disney races. I consider that part of the rD experience. The Broad Street subway ride is also part of the race experience, but it’s torture.
