Hi all- a question for all you runners. I missed the sign up for the Tinkerbell Half Marathon but still want to participate in the festivities. I've never been to a Disney marathon before and was wondering if the Family Run 5k is still a good idea. Is it geared more towards kids or is it more of a warm up? Thanks!

Ohhhh....I am interested in doing this too! - ohhhtoodles  365.2 #381 8:08AM
The 5K is good for all ages. And I'm pretty sure it's entirely in the parks. You get to go backstage too. - MXPrincess399  482.1 #246 1:58PM
From what I remember, it was at night - BaseballMickey_CM  2849.5 #15 2:00PM
On the website it says 5:45am, eek! so early, lol - seashelly  107.0 #2950 2:37PM
Yes, this time it's a morning run. - MXPrincess399  482.1 #246 3:13PM
Since we missed signup for the half we are doing the 5k!!! - PaintingTheRosesRed  420.8 #306 2:06PM
awesome, I think I will sign up too, it sounds like a lot of fun. And i'm not a consistent marathon runner or anything so I think it would be a great start :) - seashelly  107.0 #2950 2:38PM
thanks guys :) - seashelly  107.0 #2950 2:38PM
We are doing the half marathon at DLR that is in less then 30 days (eek!) and there is also a 5k happening that day as well. I could try to get some info about the 5k's if you'd like. I think when you register for the 5k you also get a twlight ticket to the park... Or at least the 5kers in September do. - Catten5  151.0 #2274 8:05AM
That would be awesome if you could get some information for me! I actually start working for Disney later this month but i'm not there in time for this marathon/ I didn't really know about it in time. - seashelly  107.0 #2950 8:23AM
I am running in the DLR half this Labor Day, too. It is 26 days away! - PrincessLeia  263.4 #885 8:40AM
The RunDisney web site has a lot of information about all the different events. You can even participate in a Cheer area (it does cost money)or you could maybe volunteer. - PrincessLeia  263.4 #885 8:37AM
Thanks! :) I really want to run it, I might just stick with the 5k and maybe volunteer for the half? I wonder if that's possible.. haha - seashelly  107.0 #2950 8:40AM
Hope so, good luck. Hope to see you there! - PrincessLeia  263.4 #885 8:54AM
awesome, thank you! And I hope to see you there as well @PrincessLeia! - seashelly  107.0 #2950 4:50PM
I have run both the 5k and the half marathon and they are both equally as fun!! Sign up if you still can, it's a magical experience - diznymommy84  215.3 #1414 12:39PM
