Did Disney just switch the am EMH for April 7?

I think I know what's going on, but just need to check. Disney originally had DHS am EMH on Sunday, April 7. I see that there isn't am EMH at DHS on that day anymore, but there is one now at MK. Looking at other weeks, MK does not have a Sunday EMH, and DHS usually does. But, April 7 is the Half Marahon for SW Rival Run and it goes through DHS. Probably trying to divert guests away from DHS. I'm going to assume it's not a glitch in the online calendar, but an actual change, right?

It appears last year, MK had PM EMH at MK on the day of the Half. And no EMH at DHS.

Anyway, that is our departure day and I was thinking a couple of rides in a park. I was originally thinking MK to avoid the run, but if there is emh, that may not be the best strategy. DH is running the half, so it may be nice to see him at the finish line (Epcot parking lot).

Oops, I posted this in wrong forum. I've alerted mods to move to TPAS.

No idea be but I can't see how they'd have an EMH on race morning. The runners are not out of the last parks early enough. Probably on the 5k day they can and maybe the 10k. But not a half or full

The AM EMH for April 7th has been scheduled for MK for a while now...I know because we are going that week and since I booked (I booked back in the fall) it has shown as MK...

May be obvious and courses can change, but other than starting in the MK parking lot, the Star Wars half doesn’t go inside MK or utilize World Drive to/from the MK. Doesn’t surprise me they shifted EMHs to MK that day instead of the ‘normal’ Sunday DHS AM EMH slot.

There's a history of EMH at a park that runners go through during the full. When I did Dopey last year DHS had a morning EMH the morning of the full, though I was running through there very long after the park had already opened (like around 11-11:30 or so). Epcot is usually opened a bit before all runners are done for all race weekends half marathons as well, even without EMH. Doesn't help to have it though.
