Whether you are participating in the Half Marathon tomorrow morning or the Marathon on Sunday morning, we want to remind you that the forecast is calling for temperatures much colder than normal. Please be prepared for all associated weather conditions. Remember to dress in layers and don’t forget a hat and gloves. In addition, on Saturday morning prior to and during the Half Marathon, the forecast currently indicates a chance of precipitation. We strongly urge you to make sure your outermost layer of clothing is water-resistant. A plastic rain poncho or even a garbage bag can be a good extra layer to keep you dry.
In addition to the weather, please remember to follow all instructions found in your race packet, especially the information about transportation to the race start If you are staying in a Walt Disney World Resort Hotel, we strongly urge you to utilize the provided Marathon Weekend transportation (bus or monorail) to get to the start. Please do not drive personal vehicles. Parking at Epcot is limited, and additional congestion on roadways and in the Epcot parking lot will cause delays that could result in you missing the race start.
Thank you for your attention to these important updates. We’ll see you at the start line!
Jon Hughes
Race Director
