With the announcement of the Inaugural Half Marathon Weekend in Disneyland Paris on 23rd to 25th September 2016, we will be forming a Disneybrit running team to help raise money for charity. We don’t have any details on which charity yet but we are certainly open to ideas.
The weekend is likely to take on a similar format to other weekends with smaller races building up to the big half marathon on the last day.
If you are interested in joining the Disneybrit Running Team then you can register your interest here
This sounds fantastic!! Really want to come!!
Looks like you are going to be a husband and wife running team 🙂
Yey!! Well ive started my training!!
Andrew ?
Well hopefully the Coulson’s can join in helping Cat & Alan represent the Great Park Slammers at DLP!
I can thoroughly reccomend the NHS Choices Couch to 5K app for anyone who is new to running. I used it to take my first tentative running steps last March and I’ve gone from a non runner to about to do my first half marathon!
I can also reccomend the excellent Mickey Milers podcast for a Disney themed running podcast. Maybe they could be future guests on DisneyBrit to talk about the Paris race?
Is there a charity like Give Kids The World that they have in the US? We donate to Make a Wish as we know they’re heavily linked to Disney.
I guess it depends if you want the charity to have a Disney link.
I think it probably makes sense for it to have a Disney link. We’ve done Great Ormand Street before because of the Peter Pan link but Make a Wish could work too
I love their newsletters, there’s always something disney related.
Slammers on tour en France Stephen Coulson?!
Louise and I have filled in the form Catherine 🙂
I did my January wdw 5k and 10k for make a wish UK and I know there are wdw radio do it for the USA make a wish and most probably many will come over for it so you could maybe team up too
Is this event taking place in 2015 or 2016? I’m sure elsewhere I saw 2015?
2016
23rd to 25th September 2016
Thank you 🙂 have just realised I read the tweet wrong. Oops
The USA ones they have an expo on where you register and pick up your bibs and shirts and then you can listen to talks and buy stuff so I’m wondering if they will use the convention centre in the hotel New York for that
How about raising money for Dreamflight?
