In this episode of the Once Upon A Park Podcast, we dive headfirst into the wild world of the runDisney Dopey Challenge! Four races in four days: a 5K, 10K, half marathon, and full marathon, add up to nearly 50 miles of running, six medals, and a weekend full of Disney magic...and early mornings. We break down what it’s really like to take on this legendary challenge, from pacing the early races and deciding whether to stop for character photos, to fueling, recovery, and even how to balance park time with sore legs. Whether you’re an experienced runner looking for a unique endurance goal, a Disney fan considering your first challenge, or just curious what it takes to survive four consecutive early morning races, this episode gives you the insider scoop on whether the Dopey Challenge is truly worth it.
