We've been talking about runDisney on WDW for Grown-ups for a while now. You know the story - runners and walkers from around the world head to Disney for a weekend to attend a fantastic health expo, run through the Parks with a couple thousand of their closest friends. Along the way they get unique perspectives on the property, gather character pictures, and ultimately take home some truly fabulous finishers medals at the end. runDisney events are the sort of thing that get people up off the couch, and working towards a healthier lifestyle. But choosing to run - it isn't easy for everyone, I get it. If you're looking for a little runDisney motivation without the huge commitment that a race weekend can take runDisney Virtual Running Shorts may be just the thing to get you lacing up and hitting the trail.
This is the second year that runDisney is sponsoring a series of Virtual 5K Races over the summer. The concept of a virtual race is a sort of self-motivated competition that is put on by an organization, in this case runDisney. The challenge is set out to complete a certain distance by a specific time, but each runner gets to choose how they complete that race.
You can run this runDisney event anywhere, any time within the designated dates, at any pace that you want. Any pace you want... did you hear that newbies? My penguin squad, turtle pals, those at the back of the pack right along side ME. Virtual runs can be completed on a treadmill, at the beach, with friends, alone, in the evening, or at the break of dawn, it's all your choice. It's your race - and the perfect motivation to help create a healthier new you.
The first step to your first (or continuing) runDisney experience starts at runDisney.com where participants go to register for the races of your choice! Registration is still open for the July 5K, August 5K, and 3 5K Virtual Event Series.

Participants are encouraged to share their achievements using #runDisneyShorts on Social Media.
