In addition to running the marathon myself, I'm hoping to cheer some friends running the half marathon in January. I had some questions that might impact what resort I stay at, which is why I'm asking so early! If it makes a difference, they'll likely be running at a 11-12 minute pace (with some photo stops).
- If I didn't want to use Disney transportation, is it possible to Uber to the Epcot parking lot to watch them at ~mile 12? Or is the traffic usually horrible towards the end of the race? I'd be coming from Boardwalk or POFQ.
- When I ran the Princess Half, I thought there were regular guests in Epcot by the time I made it to that park (my run time was 03:13, so I guess we were in there after 8am?). Is that usually a viable spectator option? Like if I'm staying at Boardwalk, could I walk into Epcot to see them? It seems unlikely there'd be much overlap with regular operating hours with a 5am start, but I have this vague memory of seeing guests in the park from Princess!
