runDisney Wine & Dine Half Marathon 2026 | Stay 10 Min from Disney
Lace up and run through the magic of Walt Disney World during the 2026 Wine & Dine Half Marathon Weekend. Choose from a 5K, 10K, or half marathon — all winding through EPCOT's World Showcase and beyond. This year's Mary Poppins theme adds a practically perfect touch to your race medals and festivities. The weekend coincides with the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival, and runners get access to an exclusive post-race party at EPCOT on Sunday night.
Make Parkside Retreat your race weekend headquarters. Our 6-bedroom home sleeps up to 14 — ideal for running groups or families combining race weekend with a Disney vacation. Use the full kitchen for pre-race pasta dinners, recover in the private pool after crossing the finish line, and celebrate with your crew in the game room. We're just 10 minutes from Walt Disney World, close enough for those early 5 AM race starts, and you'll save compared to on-property Disney resorts while getting far more space.

The Real Cost of a Hotel vs. One Comfortable Home
Hotels look cheaper at first - until you factor in multiple rooms, fees (parking, resort fee, etc), and limited space. Our home offers room to relax, amenities you'll actually use, and a better overall value.
