My Tips From the 2014 Disneyland Half Marathon
* You can visit the expo before you pickup your race packet. I visited first thing on Thursday while most people were at packet pickup. It was a mostly empty Expo with everything still in stock. I even had a chance to talk and take pictures with Jeff Galloway with no line at all. I waited until the late afternoon to pickup my packet when there was no line for that.
* The Expo/Packet pickup seems to assume you are coming in via the "front" of the Disneyland hotel, ie from the Mickey and friends parking garage. If you are coming from Downtown Disney you are coming in the back door. Not really a problem, but there was no signage to point your way. Just go out the front entrance of the hotel and down the ramp for package pickup.
* They sell stuff at the expo. Bring money.
* On race day, Shuttle buses from the neighborhood hotels drop you off at the far end of the esplanade by the Harbor hotels on the map (below). You get to walk across the esplanade (complete with bag check) past the park entrances and through all of downtown Disney before taking a right hand turn by the ESPN zone down to the pre-race pen and corrals. Allow time for that walk.
* Bag check and porta potties are located in the Pre-race pen.
* Other than that nothing, and I mean nothing interesting happens in the pre-race pen. Next year I'm just heading directly for the corrals.
*Corrals are NOT located in a parking lot. they are on Disneyland Dr. itself north of the start line. You can only get to them by heading east along Magic way.
* Prior to corral opening time we were held up at the corner of Downtown Dr. and Magic way. If you want to be at the front of your corral that's where you want to be, the earlier the better.
* On the way to the corrals the street divides. Early corrals to the right, later ones to the left.
* Gates to the corrals open at 4:30am (not!) they are always a bit late.
* The start of the race is up hill for just a bit be ready for that.
* Sweep time starts when the last runner enters the course.
