February/March

Hello! DH and I have a cruise planned for our 10th wedding anniversary February 28th - March 4th. We wanted to add three park days at the beginning, but I just noticed that's the Princess Marathon weekend. I've been trying to research how those crowds affect park attendance. I'm seeing a lot of folks say it's not that bad, as the runners will be coming in later and probably leaving sooner to rest up. I've seen others though that have rescheduled due to this. We are flexible with our days, and could add them after the cruise. Or split them up - we are doing MK, Epcot, and HS. I've never stayed over a running event before, so not sure what to expect, if there's certain parks on certain days we should avoid, or just go with a good plan? Any thoughts are appreciated.

It’s also Mardi Gras week so I expect it to be packed (depending on what Covid does by then ).
