Stoked Journeys 2nd Edition-September 2015 | Page 11

Featured Health Bit Ok….so this isn’t really a “Health Bit” like usual, however, it is a “workout”… Calling All Marathoners (and Disney lovers)! The force has awakened at Walt Disney World® Resort as runDisney announces a new addition to its portfolio – “Star Wars Half Marathon – the Dark Side.” This intergalactic quest through the Walt Disney World Resort blasts off April 14-17, 2016 and channels the Dark Side of the Force. Events include a 5K, 10K, kids’ races and half marathon. There will also be a Star Wars Dark Side Challenge — running the 10K and the half marathon on consecutive days – that offers each finisher a Death Star-themed medal. Runners who join the Galactic Empire will enjoy a true Star Wars experience, including Dark Side-inspired medals and merchandise throughout the weekend. The new race follows the debut of the popular Star Wars-themed race at Disneyland® Resort, which will return in January as the “ Star Wars Half Marathon – the Light Side”. Guests who dare to experience both Star Wars races will have the chance to take on the Kessel Run Challenge — completing the Star Wars half marathon missions on both coasts. Kessel Run Challenge runners can earn a commemorative "Coast to Coast'' medal inspired by the Millennium Falcon starship. Registration for the “Star Wars Half Marathon – the Dark Side” opens September 22, 2015 at High Noon ET!!!
