‘Star Warsโข Half Marathon – The Dark Side’ Announced for Walt Disney Worldยฎ Resort
After a successful first Star Warsโข Half Marathon Weekend this past January at the Disneylandยฎ Resort, runDisney participants have been hoping for a similar event to hit the East Coast. This morning, runDisney announced a second Star Warsโข Half Marathon Weekend would be added, but this time things will be focused on the dark side!
Star Warsโข Half Marathon – the Dark Side Weekend will take place April 14-17, 2016, at the Walt Disney Worldยฎ Resort. In addition to the Half Marathon, the weekend’s events will include a Star Warsโข 10K, Star Warsโข 5K, Kids Races, and the Dark Side Challenge (Star Warsโข 10K on Saturday and Star Warsโข Half Marathon on Sunday). Participants can also accept the Kessel Run Challenge by completing the Star Warsโข Half Marathon missions on both coasts earning them a commemorative โCoast to Coastโ medal inspired by the Millennium Falcon starship.
The original Star Warsโข Half Marathon Weekend, which will return in January at the Disneylandยฎ Resort, will be rebranded as the Star Warsโข Half Marathon โ the Light Side but registration for that event has already sold out.
Race registration for Star Warsโข Half Marathon – the Dark Side Weekend opens Sep. 22 (Early registration starts Sep. 15th for Annual Passholders and DVC Members)! Like all runDisney events, this one is expected to sell out quickly so mark your calendars!
