Being in Scotland, a Disney fan and starting to run.. what a great way to do my first 1/2!<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07068708150070485209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5093644418410785887.post-89521075660515801922013-04-30T07:41:29.738-04:002013-04-30T07:41:29.738-04:00I would do this race but I wouldn't sign up fo...I would do this race but I wouldn't sign up for the package. I just got back from a trip to Disneyland Paris yesterday. I stay at a cheap hotel one stop away from the parks on the train (it's 7 minutes to get to the park by train). The only down side of my hotel is the lack of bathtub for a post-race epsom salts soak!

I typically don't pay attention to international races because its not something I ever considered. You know how much of a Disney nerd I am--I would take a runDisney event to get me to do a race in Europe.

Wow, that was almost s dumb mistake (luckily, someone on this blog warned against it). I think racing in another continent would be fun, but I am not sure I would select a Disney race to do it...? Anyone know of other great destination races (in US or abroad)?Sue B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08480200535312053369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5093644418410785887.post-84209298085850292482013-03-17T00:59:23.065-04:002013-03-17T00:59:23.065-04:00I love the idea of this race, and I already have m...I love the idea of this race, and I already have my passport....Might have to start saving now!!<br />Kristahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03690190313867440970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5093644418410785887.post-18714478238732453412013-03-14T22:28:19.170-04:002013-03-14T22:28:19.170-04:00That price for the trip itself seems high to me fo...That price for the trip itself seems high to me for only 4 days (IMO, especially since the race is separate). I say this based on a 8 day tour of Italy (3 cities for $1,200). Mid-Oct from Philly to Paris is $1,200 right now. Could go down, could go up. Love the idea of a race in Paris, I ran there when we went to Europe in 2010, but $1,100 for 4 days? Remember the jet lag that would accompany that. You might not be ready come Sunday to run if you take the package deal. I know. I know. I sound like a jerk. Sorry! I'm the first to want to run in other countries and the only marathon I'm considering is the London one. It sounds fun though!Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00311487376653590470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5093644418410785887.post-24683288881519095132013-03-14T11:41:17.770-04:002013-03-14T11:41:17.770-04:00I took the survey yesterday and my jaw dropped whe...I took the survey yesterday and my jaw dropped when I saw this question. I would sign up for this race in an instant. The prices are very competitive and Disney is considering a 4 day/3 night hotel and ticket package for $1100. It is totally worth it in my opinion.Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09061721386317456460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5093644418410785887.post-91216491362990780582013-03-14T00:05:47.718-04:002013-03-14T00:05:47.718-04:00Wow!
