Whether you’re charting a swashbuckling course through your neighborhood or racing toward a happily ever after in your local park, this virtual event is designed to bring the spirit of the Disney Parks straight to your stride.

We’ve got a few tips and tricks to help make your virtual miles even more magical:

Race Day Tool Kit

Before you embark on your theme park-inspired adventure, don’t forget to download your official virtual race kit! Inside you’ll find your race bib, mile markers, and themed “Start Line” and “Finish Line” signs—perfect for capturing those picture-perfect moments.

Registered runners can access theirs by heading to the “Manage Account” section on the runDisney website. From the dashboard, click on “Your Registrations” and select the 2025 runDisney Virtual Series.

Add Theme Park Fun to Your At-Home Race Day!

Bring a little Disney Parks magic to your local course with creative ideas to elevate your race day celebration:

• Design Your Own Ride-Inspired Race Course: Map a 5K route that channels the spirit of your favorite attraction—whether it’s a “wildest ride in the wilderness” backyard loop or a “jungle cruise” through the greenest trail in your city.
• Decorate with Disney Flair: Add attraction-themed touches like pirate flags or jungle vines for an immersive, DIY race environment!
• Create a Magical Medal Moment: Finish your adventure with a personal medal ceremony. Ask a friend or family member to hand you your medal—or treat yourself to a mini firework moment with confetti or streamers.

Wear the Magic on Your Wrist

Add a splash of Disney magic to your miles with a custom watch or fitness tracker background! Channel the spirit of your virtual race with images inspired by the featured attractions:

• Disney Pirates of the Caribbean: Aye-aye, captain! Let Jack Sparrow steer you to the finish.
• Jungle Cruise: You’re the skipper now—don’t forget to make your own corny jokes!
• Big Thunder Mountain Railroad: It’s a race through the wilderness—hold onto your hats!
• Disney Happily Ever After: Set your sights on a sparkling finish that’s worthy of fireworks.
