Official Avengers Half & 5k Courses!

The official courses for the Avengers half marathon and 5k courses have been posted to the runDisney website! 

Avengers 5k


Avengers Half


It'll be nice to run different courses at Disneyland other than the Disneyland races over Labor Day weekend and Tinker Bell in January.

What do you think of these new courses?

    1. I have to admit that I'm already a bit disappointed... There's so little park time for the half, and the Neverland 5k course was much better. But then, what can beat starting in front of the castle?

    2. You get to start in front of the castle?! That is awesome!

    3. Yeah! At the Neverland 5k, you start the 5k in front of the castle!!! My 5k friend is not pleased about this one. :/

  2. I think Tink may still hold the best course award,but this one will be interesting. A few more miles south on Harbor and I can run right home!

    1. I agree! Tink was so great. I know registration is holding on at 99%, so tempted to sign up!
      Just don't run home in the middle of the race! ;)

  3. How different is this compared to Tink and DL? (I have only run DL in the past).

    1. For the 5k: Tink/Neverland starts inside the park in front of the castle. DL's 5k might be very similar to the Avenger's 5k.
      For the half: Tink doesn't go to the baseball stadium. It has a lot more time in the parks (you exit about 6 miles into the race) and heads north-east of the parks. DL goes directly east of the parks, then down to the stadium and back. Then Avengers goes south, to the stadium, and back.
      They're all a little bit different. I'll have a comparison post out after I run Avengers. :)
