I recall seeing one Craig wearing a Dark Side runDisney shirt many months ago, as well as a runDisney event review segment a couple of years ago. DW and I would be among those who would love to see the occasional runDisney race/event review on the podcast. There are other podcasts that are runDisney specific, but their production quality is often lacking, and video is absent.

And there was one time during that segment years ago where it seemed like Pete was interested in participating. I haven't checked every event's charity groups, but perhaps, if GKTW was one of them, a sum could be raised for Pete to do the 5k of an event weekend...
 
I agree. GKTW also does their own race, maybe some podcasters could do that one as well.

The runDisney community is so huge and so broad that I think they should at least touch on them from time to time and maybe have someone who has run give a review or something as part of a segment. Even Tracy has done runDisney events.
 

GKTW has been a Charity Partner for Marathon Weekend the past couple of years.

Although I am a runDisney addict, I can guess that there would be plenty of people who glaze over during any talk of it, much akin to Kevin and Star Wars.

IMO there has been plenty of things I have glazed over on the podcast but I still listen most of the time. For example I don't routinely watch the universal show because I have never been nor have any plans to go right now. If people don't like the topic they don't have to listen, and who knows maybe they'll learn something and want to try a runDisney race.

Maybe they could cover it at the end of an episode this way people who aren't interested could sign off ... kinda like they used to have the "2nd hour" that Dustin led that covered random topics
 
I LOVE this idea. I would also love to offer my services as a guest correspondent. I had the pleasure of running the FULL marathon this past WDW Marathon weekend when I had only signed up to do the half. What an AMAZING experience that was... runDisney rocked that out!

Anyhoo... how can we make this happen?

Congrats - major accomplishment, and nice way to make lemonade out of lemons!!

You were one of those amazing 1500 people that made the jump! I ran Dopey or the grumpy as many are calling it because of the half. I'll be back again next year for my 4th consecutive marathon weekend. I also hope to do a Disneyland race for coast to coast.

I apologize for never replying to this! Just stumbled on it again!

And yes! My husband and I made that jump and it was one of the most amazing experiences ever! Our time was obviously the slowest full we had ever done (Clearly, with not being well-trained!), but the support we got from fellow runners and the wonderful way Disney handled a difficult situation made up for our time! Congrats on your Dopey/Grumpy ;) Will you be back in 2018? We actually signed up for the full this time. Hope the weather cooperates!
