Marathon Weekend 2025

SAFD: I like to think of DATW on Monday as my celebration.

SAFD: I like to snack my way through Epcot. Special shout out to the Germany pavilion as giant pretzels and gingerbread cookie sandwiches are big favorites.

SAFD:
I've taken the habit of celebrating after each half marathon with a mimosa at a different restaurant.

So far I've done WBG, Homecomin', Whispering Canyon Café, GF Café and Cape May Café.

I'm not doing the Half at MW this year, only the 10k and Full. What will I do??

Typically a beer after the marathon. After Dopey last year I was 3 IPAs deep waiting for my daughter to finish. Usually we have a kitchen sink at Beaches and Cream later.

SAFD: last year I went to whispering canyon for an all I could enjoy breakfast skillet which was perfect for consuming a lot of calories and its proximity to MK. Later in the trip we went to Hoop Dee Doo for the first time and that’s definitely in consideration for the post marathon meal in 2025.

SAFD: We have almost always headed to Epcot after the marathon (after a shower and a change of clothes!) and the past couple of years we have celebrated with dinner at Biergarten. I avoided this place for years, thinking it was just a meat fest (I'm vegan) but they actually have a ton of plant based options, plenty of beer, and live entertainment. So it's become a new tradition!

That’s good to know! We ate there years ago, before we stopped eating meat, and it was a lot of fun. We need to go back!

SAFD: My favourite place to celebrate post-Marathon Weekend has been with Disney Cruise Line! For every Marathon Weekend we have done (when previously available), DH and I have sailed on the Monday morning 4-nt Bahamian Cruise sailing out of Port Canaveral to also include the Castaway Cay Challenge. We usually go all-out with a concierge-level booking, champagne tasting right after boarding, dinner at Palo, brunch at either Palo or Remy (most recently Enchante on the Wish), couples spa villa treatment, and Castaway Cay Cabana if we can get one. It's luxurious to be sure, but very painful once the credit card bill comes. Totally worth it every time!
