Just signed up for the virtual Disney marathon for this Summer, I want to run a marathon at WDW next year and thought this was the best way to get started. Thank you for this video.

I’ve done Harry Potter themed virtual races before, and one of them you just logged your distance and time after each leg you did. What was cool about that is they actually used Google Maps to track your run on a REAL route from Aberdeen to Dufftown, Scotland, which runs 52 miles (with a 90 day timeframe). So essentially, with each check-in, you saw how far you’d traveled, as well as a view of where you were.

I’ve never been a runner but signed up for the Star Wars Virtual Half Marathon anyway and used it to start getting into running more. It definitely helped that you can break it up b/c there is no way I could run a half marathon all in 1 go. I will be 100% signing up for the marvel challenge and am going to try doing each 5K without breaking it up this time. I'm so excited!!! Which is crazy b/c I've never been excited about running before!

I'm so grateful Disney did this this year because this got me running! I've HATED running my whole life, but when I learned about the virtual half-marathon and saw that medal, that was it - I was finally willing to try! So I finished the Star Wars half and have since done four more virtual half-marathons - all since February! One of my favorite parts is that they all donate part of the registration fee to charity. So I'm getting exercise, I'm helping worthy causes and I get medals! Where's the downside? ;-) Thanks for the vid!

I've gone online and put my time in to get a finisher certificate...then what? Will the medal just automatically show up in the mail? Do I have to do anything to let Disney know that I finished the run? THE ANTICIPATION IS KILLING ME! Haha, Thanks!

Walk/ run in increments. A good resource is the Couch Potatoe to 5K fitness program which you can just Google. I believe it's a 6 or 8 week program, and it works. Just remember to listen to your body and take it slow.
