It was a decadent race weekend that was 15 years in the making as participants made their way to Walt Disney World Resort for the 2024 Disney Wine & Dine Half Marathon Weekend. Highlighting some of the iconic Disney Chefs, runners savored every moment of the weekend from magical miles through the theme parks, exciting Disney characters and entertainment on course, to the uniquely themed finisher medals.

Let’s recap some of the crystal anniversary race weekend highlights:

Not only was it a memorable weekend for the thousands of weekend runners, but even more so for the 98 Disney Wine & Dine Half Marathon “perfect” participants, who have finished every year of the race since its beginning. Reminiscing about their favorite race memories over the years, some of the group shared a moment together prior to the race start – watch to hear a few of their stories:

Speaking of memorable moments, it was a delicious victory for the Half Marathon first finishers. Full of confetti, cheers and Disney characters, Lawrence, Kan., runner Josh Baden crossed the finish line with a strong time of 1:16:29, two minutes faster than last year’s race winner. On the women’s side, Lisa Hart, a UK native now living in Winter Garden, Fla., finished in 1:22:37. Rounding out the amazing first finishers was Linden Williamson of Seguin, Texas, who was the top wheelchair finisher with a half marathon time of 58:03.
