Then, the main event: we’re recapping Natalie’s lightning-fast trip down to Walt Disney World—a trip filled with rides, snacks, sips, and a very emotional goodbye to MuppetVision 3D. 

From Epcot ducks and Donald topiaries, to Baseline Tap House flights, Italian Ice margaritas, and chocolate shots that brought her back to life—we’ve got all the details. Plus, how she survived multiple parks, multiple lounges, and a farewell that hit us right in the nostalgia.

On today’s episode, we’re letting our imaginations run wild—literally. We’re talking about the Disney worlds we’d love to run through. Would we wind our way through the Hundred Acre Wood with Pooh and Piglet cheering us on? Dash past the lanterns in Corona with Rapunzel? Or maybe race through the icy mountains of Arendelle? Lol, no. We’ve picked our dream locations and running with it.

On today’s episode, we’re talking about one of our very favorite parts of runDisney: the friendships that make the miles even more magical.

Our special guests, the Mainstreet Marathoners, are a group of runners who found each other through runDisney, and have built a friendship that’s gone far beyond the finish line. From training chats and race weekend traditions to staying connected in the off-season, these women are the definition of found family.

Whether you're running solo right now, looking for your race weekend crew, or just love a good story about friendship and finish lines — along with quite a few laughs throughout — you’re going to love this one.

Also — happy belated birthday to Goofy. This one's for you.

On today’s episode, we’re stepping away from castle corridors and heading straight to the streets of Boston, because we’ve got a special guest and a truly inspiring story. We’re going behind the bib with our amazing friend KG, who just crossed the finish line of the 2025 Boston Marathon—and this time, it was a redemption run.

She’s opening up about everything—from how it felt to take on Boston again, to running for the Flutie Foundation, and what it really means to chase a unicorn. Whether you’re dreaming of qualifying, curious about running for charity, or just here for the runner highs and lows—you’re in the right place.
