New runDisney Springtime Surprise Weekend coming to Walt Disney World

Celebrate Walt Disney World Resort’s 50th anniversary during the inaugural runDisney Springtime Surprise Weekend.

Rundown familiar courses inspired by fan-favorite races, including Expedition Everest 5K, Race for the Taste 10K, and The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror™ 10-Miler—with some added twists and turns.

On March 31st through April 3rd, 2022 runners will embark on a nostalgic four-day race weekend that will have them reliving wonderful past runDisney memories while creating new ones during the Walt Disney World Resort 50th anniversary celebration.

The inaugural Springtime Surprise Weekend will feature: 

  • Expedition Everest 5K (April 1, 2022) – The race will once again feature a nighttime 5K combined with a scavenger hunt, but this time the hunt will be conducted during the 5K.
  • Race for the Taste 10K (April 2, 2022) – The event will mirror the 10K from the past, but now the race will celebrate the newest attraction at Walt Disney World Resort, Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure at EPCOT.
  • The Tower of Terror 10-Miler (April 3, 2022) – The race will still be a 10-miler, but will be run in the morning instead of at night.

Runners who sign up for the Springtime Surprise Challenge can test their endurance by participating in all three events – 19.3 total miles – and earn a special “challenge’’ medal while perhaps also reminiscing throughout the weekend.

And if you’re in the mood for more relaxation, there will also be a sunrise yoga event in front of Cinderella Castle at Magic Kingdom Park to kick off the weekend, similar to the recently announced yoga event that leads off the Disney Princess Half Marathon Weekend in Feb. 2022.
