Disneyland half marathon 2014

Any predictions when registration will open? We are hoping to do the Coast to Coast challenge and I don't want to miss our chance

I want to say early January, since that's when it opened this year.

Early Registration was open during the Expo for WDW Marathon weekend and at the Tinker Bell. General Registration opened Shortly after. It sold out fast!

That is what I heard! We are doing the WDW half in jan 2014 so hopefully we can do early reg there?

You can also register on the rundisney website and you will get an email when registration opens.

This year it sold out in about an hour after opening to the general public.

Easiest way for you to try to get in would be to see if they are doing early registration at the WDW Marathon Expo. Sometimes the expos will have early registration for something and sometimes not.

Have fun! I did C2C this year at Tink and Princess and now I'm off to DL for Dumbo! Love runDisney!

Ooh, good info! Here's hoping it'll be open for early reg at the Marathon weekend!

There was also early reg for disney visa holders, don't remember about DVC or APers. Reg that way opened a few days before the WDW expo last year, b/c I was going to reg there for this year's race, but w/ DDD, the lines at 1st were really long so I did Visa before I went out to WDW.

Does anyone happen to know if you get any park perks? I think that possibly, back in the day, that the runners got to enjoy the park a little bit after the race- which would be awesome and totally fair since the cost to run is just as much if not more than a ticket haha. Just curious if they ever still did that for any Disney races

Nope. Sorry. If you want to play in the parks after the races you have to buy a ticket.

Actually, I take that back. Wine and Dine in WDW has an after party in the park that goes all night long - literally!

Most of the races (all of the DL ones and most of the WDW ones) don't include park admission.

This year's Half sold out so quickly due to all of the extra excitement over the Dumbo Double Dare, so who knows what's going to happen for next year's race as far as registration.
