A Race into the Fifth Dimension

This weekend, thousands of runners and their families have traveled to the Walt Disney World® Resort to take part in The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror™ 10-Miler Weekend. This runDisney event consists of three race – Twilight Zone Tower of Terror™ 10-Miler, the Disney Happy Haunted 5K Trail Run, and a runDisney Kids’ Races.

The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror™ 10-Miler is a reincarnation of a scarily popular 13K race that was last held in 2009. Kicking off tonight at 10p, it is one of only two runDisney races that takes place at night! Starting and ending inside Disney’s Hollywood Studios®, the course takes runners through the set of Lights, Motors, Action!® Extreme Stunt Show® and past the iconic Sorcerer Mickey’s Hat. Appropriately enough, the race finishes near The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror™ attraction.

After the race, runners and their families can enjoy a special Disney Villains Hollywood Bash where they can celebrate their recent accomplishment until 4a. Attendees will enjoy a live DJ, character meet and greets with Disney Villains, and many of their favorite Disney’s Hollywood Studios® attractions including Rock ‘n Roller Coaster® Starring Aerosmith and Toy Story Mania!®.

runDisney hosts many different events throughout the year at both the Walt Disney World® Resort and Disneyland® Resort. Earlier this year, our Magic Maker® Joe DeFazio shared his experiences from participating in a runDisney event. You can read all about it here.
