The first mile of runDisney’s Wine & Dine half got The first mile of runDisney’s Wine & Dine half got me so excited about the rest of the season. 🏃🏻‍♀️ I recapped the whole weekend (including 5k thoughts) on last week’s The Castle Run Podcast.
Did you run the W&D 5K? How did it go? Brief paus Did you run the W&D 5K? How did it go?

Brief pause in our trek through The runDisney Companion this week to spend a little time recapping Wine & Dine. I talk through the 10K and half and then spend a little time with my thoughts on the new 5k format and the changes that came with it. Would love to hear your thoughts too. 

But spoiler alert going in: not one person was swept at the 5K and not one course was cut short. You are all amazing. 🩵

How were your races?
