Disneyland Half Marathon Weekend 2024

A fun run at the Disneyland Half Marathon hosted by RunDisney! This was the Disneyland in Anaheim, CA.
It's been a while since I participated in a race that's a bit more casual and I'm glad I did. It definitely felt a bit weird running so early with most of the race happening in the dark. And sorry for the dark and noisy footage! Gopro aint the best in low light :(.
It also got pretty crowded at times, but nonetheless twas a fun run that I enjoyed. Unless you're a Disney fanatic, you'd probably be happy running this half marathon just once xD. Hope you guys enjoy!

This is a pure example of why I never start in the back lol. Too much walking and bottlenecking

Amazing job! Really enjoyed this video! I was excited during the race when it opened up on to the highway to spread out the runners.

[@alvinma2460]

I agree! It was like "Freedom!!" 😆

Alvin I really enjoyed this video! The font, the music and the editing. Really nice 👍🏼. Oh and I agree with the one and done comment on the Disney half marathon. I ran the Tinkerbel half marathon many years ago and thought the same😊

[@alvinma2460]

Great video overview of the race, just what I wanted to see. Also those sub 7 minute miles 🤯

[@alvinma2460]

Thankss! A good workout 🙂

[@jmart38]

Great video! I would not have the patience to navigate the park in a crowded race.

[@alvinma2460]

Thanks! Understandable haha

[@zevkizelnik6628]

Loved your video, with your time start in group A in a future race,
As someone that ran the race starting in the first group, All of the bottleneck issues that you experienced will not happen. You're able to enjoy the characters and enjoy the park without all the crowdedness, and run with comparable runners who will match your pace

[@alvinma2460]

Good point!

Love how you edit your videos. What camera and app are you using?

Thanks! For the fancier looking ones, I use Sony A7SIII. The running janky vids are usually my iPhone or GoPro haha
