Exercise with Disney: Disneyland Half Marathon Weekend Begins!

Runners abound! Those attending the Marathon Weekend went to the Welcome Event this morning in Paradise Pier, with a special appearance from Runner's World.

The event included a Q & A session, a Dynamic Warm-Up session, early access to the runDisney Merchandise Area, and even a ride on Soarin' to welcome runners to sunny California.

Later today, the Health & Fitness expo will open at noon and run for most of the weekend.

Be sure to visit even if you aren't registered for the runs - the Expo is open to all!

While runners can pick up their numbers, shirts, and gEAR bags, the everyday Disney-goer can enjoy runDisney apparel, merch, equipment and gadgets, and a fabulous speaker series for training tips and nutrition.

Check out the Expo noon through 5:30pm at the Grand Californian! The first race, the Family Fun Run 5k, starts at 5:30am tomorrow, in Downtown Disney.

If you don't make it to the race tips seminar at the Expo, be sure to check out the runDisney website to enjoy your race safely and efficiently.

Good luck and have a fantastic weekend!
