Hi! The details for the 2017 Coast to Coast Challenges are not listed on the runDisney site yet. I will keep my eyes open & share as soon as I hear! Were you a participant this year?
Are there any fall 2017 Disney races planned??
I’m sure there are, but official dates have not been announced yet. Per the runDisney site, they only list events thru the Tinkerbell Half in 5/17. As soon as dates are announced, I will be sure to share them! (This post was originally published in the beginning of October 2015, so I’m hoping around that time again!) Have a great day!
