Here you go, Marathon folks!
All the official information for the 2016 Walt Disney World Marathon weekend.
Why do I post it here when it’s clearly on rundisney.com?
A of all: Because I’m lazy & I think I can speak for many of us. I’m not a fan of rD’s website and the way information is laid out. So I grab it and put it here in one easy to scroll through spot. (side note- Does anyone else think runDisney’s site needs a major facelift? So 2011!)
Secondly: (yes, I did that on purpose) My blog won’t disappear after the race like some of runDisney’s information does.
When you are looking for some information next year, I’m your girl. I can tell you that some of my most popular blog posts are these types with corral information and event guides linked. I’m glad to see it helps someone out there.
Get your waiver HERE. Your bib number will be on the bottom of the waiver.
Once you have your number, check out which corral you will start in.

Have logistics questions? They are probably answered here in the Event Guide.

Terrible picture- I know. Hoping for better from rD directly. This is from the event guide.
ETA: Since the pictures are coming from the event guide are not very good, I’m not going to link the half and 5k/10k images. They appear to be the same routes as last year, though.
Are you running WDW Marathon weekend? Are you ready to DO THIS?

Hi Has anyone received a corral assignment from runDisney for the marathon Jan 8th? I entered a proof of time, but so far have had nothing back.I checked the waiver and nothing on that either.

Hi Ian,
You won't get anything from runDisney. They do not email waivers or corral assignments.
What you'll do is go to the Waiver link above and print out your waiver. On the bottom near your name is a bib number. Come back to this post and look at the chart for your race. You'll be in the corral corresponding to your bib number. Hope that helps!

Thank you- this is the most helpful info I have found. The runDisney website is a joke and the communication with runners is poor, at best. This blog post answered all my questions and then some! I emailed he link to everyone I know running next month. Much appreciated!
