Marathon Weekend 2026

[Herding_Cats]

You want to log into your account, and then click on "your events" (shown on an iphone screen. on a PC it's in a bar near the top left of your screen.) This will show all of the events you registered for, both for yourself AND your friends. I have grayed out the name of the person in my example.



The resulting page will look like this, and you'll want to click on the "1 document needs your attention" so you get a drop-down from that.



The resulting drop-down will look like this, and you'll want to click/tap the "SEND TO _______" link which will give you a pop-up page with the person's email you used during registration (assuming you used THEIR email for their bib and not yours for everyone) and click send.



They should then receive an email from rundisney to "Link Your Registration and Sign Your Documents" and they need to follow the directions inside.

**If you or they are international runners, you can either print/sign a physical copy and bring it with you to the expo, or get a paper copy AT the expo as international runners cannot complete the waiver digitally.

I’m a DNS for princess 10k and the half because I pulled my hamstring a couple weeks before the race. I had to promise my doctor I would slowly walk the 5k with my niece who was 32 weeks pregnant. It would have been nice if I could have transferred my bib in person at the expo to my nephew who at the last minute came down for the weekend.

@SheHulk @Herding_Cats Thanks so much! Done and done!

I will say, as a still relatively new runner, that running the marathon was COMPLETELY different than doing a half. It was a completely different beast. I KNEW that going in, but it was still a huge learning experience when I hit mile 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20... and I still had to keep going. I was like, oh. This is way harder than the jump from 10k to half.

I know right?? My experience was similar. 5K to 10K was not bad, then 10K to 10mi, then 10mi to half. That's all a nice smooth progression until you get to the giant chasm from half to full. It always made me think there should be an 18- or 19-mileish distance out there, a three-quarter marathon or something.

Not in my experience. I ordered the 2025 Men’s jacket about a month after registration. For DL 2024 I ordered the jacket at least 2 months after registration because I didn’t get registered until well after registration opened. This is bizarre because they should just be able to increase their order. Why leave money on the table?

I think I want the Goofy hoodie but because of size, I don’t think I want to pre-order. But even for that one, Small and Medium are sold out and for most hoodies I’m either a M or L. I just don’t understand runDisney’s merchandising strategy.

Thabk you for the info, I appreciate it! I have been trying to give this some thoughts I wonder if they can only order in large lot sizes as in they can order 5,000 or 10,000. I kinda assume the folks that do the ordering have been told they have to eat any left over merchandise. I'll probaby try checking once a week or so to see if they added any stock.

I have done several halves over the years but this will be my first time running a full, I know I can do 16 miles now to add another long run on top of it... Would by lying if I didn't say it scares me a little.

A 30k! It’s 18.6 miles so just before the wall! I’ve never done one but husband is planning to sign up for one this fall. He has said he has no interest in ever doing marathon. But he also never planned to do a half marathon until I came along and has now done 4, mwah ha ha ha!

For those who are still interested in registering, the Boys and Girls Club of Central Florida still has bibs for the 5K (11 spots as of now), 10K (15 spots), Half (13 spots), and Goofy (4 spots as of now). And their fundraising goals are extremely reasonable.
