The Disneyland® Half Marathon Info

Returns August 29 - 31, 2008. Start planning now to join us in Anaheim over Labor Day Weekend for your shot at the coveted castle finisher medal.

The course for this fantastic event will take runners from the Anaheim Convention Center, the largest exhibit facility on the west coast, to Disney's California Adventure® Park, celebrating California's storied past and exciting future, to the Disneyland® Park where you will explore the fantastic "lands" of nostalgia, color and delight. Then it is on to the scenic streets of Anaheim, past the Honda Center, home of the Anaheim Mighty Ducks, along the Santa Ana Trail overlooking the Santa Ana River, through Angel Stadium, home of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, and finally back through Disney's California Adventure® Park for an exciting finish of the Happiest Race on Earth! Ideal weather and a flat loop course set the stage for an exhilarating Half Marathon designed to shatter personal bests.

The actual race is at 6am on August 31st! I am excited... this will be my next big race of the year and it sounds like a wonderful event!

Once I complete the Disney Half Marathon (13.1 miles)... I will have ran 4 Big RACES since Feb. 2007!
  • Pacific Shoreline Half Marathon 2007 (results 2:45)
  • Surf City Half Marathon 2008 (results 2:39)
  • Rock-n-Roll FULL Marathon 2008 (results to be announced)
  • Disneyland Half Marathon 2008 (results to be announced)

That is exciting stuff in my world... thanks for sticking around with Melissa Live!
