Earlier today we shared information on the kickoff of the Disney Wine & Dine Half Marathon Weekend. This is the first in person race weekend in over a year and a half. When Walt Disney World shut down in March, 2020, all runDisney races went virtual. The event is now underway. Sarah Harris has shared the following on Disney Parks Blog:

It’s time to lace up those sneakers and get ready for a wickedly delicious set of events as runDisney makes its return to Walt Disney World this weekend with the 2021 Disney Wine & Dine Half Marathon Weekend powered by AfterShokz!

About Paula K

I grew up in Western Massachusetts. When I was nine my family went to Disneyland and I was hooked. I grew up, attended New England College in Henniker, NH and eventually moved to Virginia. I worked as a disc jockey, married and became a full time mom when our daughter was born. Fast forward several years. In 2010 we moved to Central Florida and my Disney obsession grew. I now work as a freelance writer and spend my spare time in the parks. Under the name Paula Brown I penned the novels Dream Wanderers and The Coffee Cruiser. I also am a co-author of Dining at Walt Disney World: The Definitive Guide. I'm obsessed with Star Wars, so this is a good time to live in Central Florida. I've been a vegetarian for well over a decade, a choice that my daughter eventually made as well. While my husband still hasn't joined us fully he has given up most meats except for seafood. I was relieved to find that vegetarian dining is not difficult at Walt Disney World.
