002 Why Run in Disneyland?

Episode 002:  Why Run in Disneyland?
I love running in Disneyland!
You can check out my past runs on my runDisney Page, See the Medals and the Excitement!

In the podcast we talked about several reasons why I think Disneyland is a great place to run:

1.  The Magic Started in Disneyland!  And your runDisney Journey should be where the Magic started it all!

2.  Lots of local support for the races with registration and cheering fans.

3.  The Garden Park / Anaheim community is great to run through with lots of local bands, cheerleaders and families showing up for support.

4.  Flat Course

5. Great Weather

6.  Good Neighbor Hotels are affordable and have ART bus support on race day.

7.  Disneyland's Resorts are SO close to the race start!

We also talked about the races...And As promised, runDisney Disneyland by the numbers:
