Overall course based on my ability:

Comments: Pretty cool race, pretty much overshadowed since we were more worried about the marathon the following day. Super flat course, would be easy to PR if not for all the Disney stuff. There is just so much to see on the course it would be tough to run fast the whole time.

Comments: Everyone should try a Disney Marathon Weekend at least once. With a teenage daughter makes it that much sweeter. Next year, the Goofy?

Comments: This report sounds like I am full of complaints, but it is mostly complaints about my ability. I know I'll do it again -- it's fun!

Comments: I would absolutely do this race again! I've done many races "AT" Disney that were put on by non-Disney race directors, but this was the first race I've done that was put on "BY" Disney. There is a difference! Heed the race instructions; arrive at the times that they specify to arrive and you will be absolutely golden! I couldn't believe how easy it was to get in and get out. I'll be back next year... with friends!

Comments: While it was more than I've previously paid for a 1/2, it's Disney, so you know they're going to do a great job. I did get my money's worth. I'm sure I'll do this again.

Comments: Great race. It's very crowded at that beginning and would be tough to try to start at a faster than 9min/mi pace in the corral I was in (B), but this didn't matter to me as I wasn't going for speed here. Fun atmosphere overall and lots of support.

Comments: Super well organized race. Great crowd support and volunteer crew. It was a race unlike anything I've experienced. Definitely worth the hype and worth adding to someone's must do list.
