This year’s runDisney 2022 Wine & Dine Half Marathon will center on the cuisine, music, and tales located within EPCOT’s World Showcase during the International Food & Wine Festival. The theme draws its inspiration from the heart of the human spirit, which is fitting as the runDisney community operates much like a family.
Disney Parks Blog just gave us an exciting look at the beautiful, new Disney-themed medals that will be awarded to finishers of the various courses. The marathon includes four different races, a 5k, 10k, half marathon, and two-course challenge.
The weekend event takes place November 4-6 and includes a post-race party. Virtual races will also be available for the public to participate in the entire weekend.
