"Wow, what a great race! Disney lives up to its reputation and does a fantastic job. The race starts in the parking lot of EPCOT and goes up to Magic Kingdom, through the castle and back to EPCOT. There is SO much support by the cast members and spectators, plus plenty of entertainment along the way. A church choir serenades you just before the finish line, with Disney characters greeting you there also.

I am doing this race again next year and probably every year after. It's the best!"

"This was another fun race. We got to run through all 4 parks for the marathon and it was great! The only downside to this marathon is the section of parkway we have to run for a large portion of the race. It can be a bit boring, but Disney is good about adding lots of entertainment along the way.

I love that there is a choir just before the finish line. They were singing a great chorus, "God is Good, All the Time" and it was very motivating.

ASI photography is all along the course taking pictures and video and they did a great job of getting lots of shots of me. I'm impressed for sure.

Disney does everything big and well. It's a fantastic race and well organized. I will be doing this again next year."
