Tucked away in Orlando is this little Disney-like town which started a marathon a few years ago. 3-4 weeks after WDW mega event, this one is smaller, more intimate, and less crowded which is great if going for a BQ. Some may not like the partial repeat of the second loop but I prefer such so I know the terrain and what to expect, especially the last 10k when trying to hold on and push to make it. The after party rocks. Aid stations are okay, Expo is small. Hope to be back in 2019

Have been running either the whole or the half for the past 5 years and this year will start a new series, again with a Space theme... after all it is the Space Coast. Nice scenery, great crowd. BQ race and if weather conditions are right, highly recommended for going for it. Space Coast Runners have many members and the area has plenty of runners to get your pace. Enjoy!

A perfect Dopey... this is a time for a fun 4-days of running like no other. Yes getting up early generally sucks but the area, the ambience, the people, and the fellow runners is what makes this uniquely special. Generally not a place for PRs but people have done so. The marathon is BQ and if weather is right can certainly be done. This is one to add to the bucket list because it so different.
