The 2024 Disney Wine & Dine Half Marathon Weekend at the Walt Disney World Resort is celebrating its 15th year with a series of races highlighting Disney Chefs' creativity and culinary delights.

 

Taking place October 31 through November 3, 2024, participants will have the chance to run in events ranging from a 5K to a half marathon, each with its own unique Disney character and food-themed story. These races include opportunities to meet Disney Characters and enjoy themed snacks along the course.

The race lineup features a 5K inspired by the Swedish Chef from the Muppets, a 10K that brings Tiana's world to life, a half marathon hosted by Chef Remy and Linguini from Ratatouille, and a Two Course Challenge that combines the 10K and half marathon, hosted by Chef Mickey, with a special medal for finishers.

Following the races, a post-race party at EPCOT's International Food & Wine Festival offers participants a chance to experience the festival's offerings, select attractions, and special entertainment.

Registration for Club runDisney Gold & Platinum Members starts on March 5, 2024, with general registration opening on March 12, 2024.

Great job! I ran my WineDineHalf sub 2 hours with 1 bathroom stop, 1 photo stop, and 2 medical stops- thankful for Vaseline on course😂😂 Was not my fastest or my slowest. Just mid. I also really like this course. Lots of downhill on the roads out by Coronado and Blizzard. At start, Carissa wished me a very Merry Christmas, and at finish I got the full Mariah Carey treatment. Love my runDisney family!!!!! Everything race related was super smooth, easy, efficient, etc. Lots of positives.

Finished my first 1/2 marathon this weekend and first time doing 2 races, also did 5k. Little back pain issue slowed down my pace to 17:14 but I was able to keep in front of the balloon ladies. Have a few months to work up to the challenge for Princess weekend.

I’m on my way down! The entertainment on stage looked so fun today, and Muppets aren’t my thing.
