This will be our first runs at Disney..Wendy's first 1/2 ever and Ty's first Goofy.
Does Disney offer transportation from the resorts to the expo, or should we plan to drive from POR to the expo?
thanks,
 
You don't catch the busses in the usual WDW bus stops though. The busses to the expo and start lines are caught at the resorts, but a bit differently located, usually closer to their convention center or something like that. They run to the Expo pretty frequently.
 
Just to add to what Lily said--you shouldn't have too much trouble spotting the Expo buses. They'll most likely be motorcoach buses (as opposed to the traditional white Disney transportation bus), since these are the ones that Disney uses for marathon morning as well. If you have any problems finding them, just ask Guest Services at the resort. They'll definitely be able to point you in the right direction.
 

From POR they will generally run the regular route since the resort is so spread out. It's good the ride the marathon busses to the expo as that will confirm where you will be picked up on race day.

Adding to Steve's comment, if you have questions ask, but not before Thursday. Frankly Cast Memebers operate on a need to know basis and they really do not need to know anything about the marathon before Thursday. We love to ask really simple questions early in our stay just to see what answers we get. We find if you ask 5 people youwill get three answers and none of them may be correct. It is really obvious once you get a lay of the land what's going on.
 
Do buses run from the Downtown Disney Resort Area? I'll be staying at Buena Vista Palace and want to know if I need to get myself to Epcot on Race Day.

No, BUT you are less than a quarter mile to a resort bus stop. Just cross the street and walk to the center of Saratoga Springs. The marathon busses leave from near the pool area. You may be closer to teh SSR bus than the outlier biuldings on the opposite side of the resort.
