I'm in the middle of training for a half marathon. I don't have a structured training plan for our 8 day trip but I would like to get a couple runs in. Maybe 5-6 miles. Anyone have any ideas for some good places to run. We are staying offsite. I'm not sure if running around some of the resorts would be possible but that would be cool. Otherwise I will try to find some park trails or something in the Orlando area.
 
Scroll down and click on the W.I.S.H section of these boards,then click on the events/competition sub forum to find everything related to RunDisney events or running at Disney.This question has popped up several times on that section and although I've never ran around the resorts I know people do around the Boardwalk resorts area and I think I've heard on these boards some people said they do around Saratoga Springs/DTD and I think Port Orleans and Coronado Springs.Try asking the question on that section for a more definitive answer,the only one I know for sure people run at is the Boardwalk area.
 
I'm a runner as well and when we stayed at CBR they have 1.2 mile loop inside the resort which I ran. Then last year I was staying offsite but brought my running gear and told the guard I was checking out the resort and went for a run again.
 
I love to run in Fort Wilderness. You can run around the various camping loops. The campers decorate for Christmas right after Halloween, so it would be fun to get to see everything they have out. There also is a path from FW to the Wilderness Lodge, which is about a mile each way. You're likely to see deer while on that path.

Try FW for your long run. I love running there.
