2015 Wine and Dine Half Marathon Weekend

Posted on
The Wine and Dine Half Marathon is my favorite half marathon at Walt Disney World. It's the only nighttime half marathon. It starts at ESPN Wide World of Sports and ends at Epcot, where there's an after-party that goes until 4:00 a.m. The Food and Wine Festival booths are open as are some attractions, and there's also entertainment and character meet and greets. Party admission is included with race registration, though you still have to pay at the food booths. As we did last year, our plan was to run the race Saturday night, then take a four-night Disney cruise starting on Monday. Oh, and then return to California on Friday to run the Inaugural Infinity Gauntlet Challenge at Disneyland on Saturday and Sunday!

Tips for runDisney’s Wine & Dine Half Marathon Weekend

Posted on
Some Walt Disney World guests take burning the calories they consume at the Epcot International Food and Wine Festival a little more seriously than others. They are, after all, visiting the resort for the upcoming runDisney weekend, which includes a half marathon, a 5K and kids races. Sure, there are plenty of opportunities to sample what food Epcot’s various marketplaces have to offer, but maybe these guests will feel a little less guilty about the calories than the rest of us.
