As everyone gears up to officially celebrate on June 5, we are excited to celebrate our own spectacular running community with a few ways to add a little extra magic to your Global Running Day!

Love catching up on podcasts while you’re out on a run? For some runners, weekly miles are an important time alone with their thoughts. For others, a good distraction really helps them through those last few miles.
For a little runDisney inspiration, listen in on one of the latest planDisney Podcasts to learn a few race weekend tips & tricks.
Tackle a Running Trail at Walt Disney World
Planning to be enjoying a Disney vacation on June 5?
Make it a “run”cation when you head out on 16 miles of running/walking trails available at Walt Disney World Resort hotels. If you will be setting sail with Disney Cruise Line during Global Running Day, cross the finish line by the beach in the Castaway Cay 5K.
