WDW Marathon Weekend is one of the most magical race weekends of the year. Thousands of runners travel to Walt Disney World to take on the 5K, 10K, Half Marathon, Marathon, and Dopey Challenge. After months of training and early-morning wake-ups, runners deserve something special waiting for them at their Disney resort: a runDisney gift basket delivered directly to their hotel.

Why a runDisney Gift Basket Is the Best WDW Marathon Weekend Gift

runDisney weekends are exhausting, emotional, and unforgettable. A thoughtfully curated gift basket adds magic at exactly the right moment, when runners return from the course or arrive at their hotel.

  • Easy for runners and families traveling light
  • Packed with useful, celebratory, and fun items
