2020 Disney World Marathon Corrals, Waivers, Course Maps & Event Guide!
In the words of Peter Pan,
Here… We… Goooooo!!!!!
I’m ChEARing you all on to a great runDisney marathon weekend!
runDisney 101 Podcast
If this is your first of 50th runDisney event, you might want a refresher going into the weekend.
I put together a 3-part runDisney 101 podcast that answers all the runDisney FAQs you typically have leading up to the race weekends.
Take a listen on The No-Guilt Fangirls Podcast during your next training run!
When will runDisney Marathon weekend Corrals/Waivers/Course Maps/Event Guides drop?
That just depends. The official line is 2 weeks before the race, but they’ve come out in early or mid-December over the past years. Last year was December 19- and guess what? It happened again on December 19, 2019. Look at that!
Here’s a reminder of how things work each year:
Typically the runDisney event guides show up first, with the course maps included. You can also find some information on corralling inside the event guides (usually an indication of how many corrals will be set up for each race distance, but no details on placement).
If you want to check out what happened last year, here are the 2019 Disney World Marathon Corrals, Waivers, Course Maps & Event Guide to give you some idea of what to expect.

Spectator Locations for the Marathon Weekend
This is from the Event Guide and should be noted:

Where are you running? If you’re doing the marathon… EVERYWHERE!
And yes, this course is both PRable and BQable if that’s your wish.
Heads up: Changes as we run through Epcot this year are the biggest points to note for the half and the full marathon courses. Oh- and NO ESPN this year. Wowza!

Don’t forget you MUST go by the expo for your bib pick up (and other fun things if you are up for it!)
Walking up to this sign on the way into the Expo is the best start to our race weekends!

I don't see the tracking option this year. But than again I haven't heard anything from RunDisney since I registered for half way back when. Thanks for any info!

Hi! Where are the Dooneys for preorder? I’ve been looking everywhere and don’t see them. I didn’t think they had them this year. Thanks!

I haven't seen those either! I wonder if they are only doing them for Princess this year. Those are available and have been for a while but I didn't ever see Marathon Dooneys

Just tried using the photopass codes for the marathon but they are not working. Help?

Hey Zack!
You can try on your phone vs laptop- sometimes it works in the app. But the official answer is to wait until race morning to link the bibs to your My Disney Experience account.
