runDisney® 2026-2027 Race Season Calendar
In 2026-2027, runDisney’s premier racing events can be enjoyed at Walt Disney World® Resort or bring the magic home, with runDisney’s virtual races.
Plus, starting with the 2026 Disney Wine & Dine Half Marathon Weekend, there will be more registration availability for 5K races during all four Walt Disney World Resort race weekends.
Part of what makes a runDisney race so magical is the welcoming nature of the community that surrounds you. Fellow runners help to lift your spirits and encourage you along the way. Not to mention, sharing laughs and magical experiences as you run alongside your chosen running crew of friends and family. With runDisney, the notion of “we” is always bigger than the individual “me.” Because we run with collective joy, we run feeling supported, we run sharing the magic in every mile, and we run together.
