Walt Disney World Marathon
Walt Disney World Marathon is a flat marathon in Orlando, USA, held each January. A flat tour through the parks — the challenge is the very early start and long stretches between crowd zones. January in Florida ranges widely, 8-20C, and humidity builds after sunrise. The Walt Disney World Marathon's flat profile means your pacing discipline, not the terrain, decides the day.
