Disney runners and marathoners [1], it's time to get excited! To kick off the new year, Disney is rolling out a Club runDisney membership program [2] for anyone who looks forward to running around Walt Disney World with Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, and the rest of the gang throughout the year, and it's actually affordable. Unlike Disney's exclusive Club 33 — which costs upwards of $40,000 to join — Club runDisney memberships are all under $1,000. Depending on your level of interest and commitment, you can choose between the Silver ($265), Gold ($479), and Platinum ($798) tier memberships, which offer a variety of perks on race and marathon days. Registration begins Feb. 18 and memberships will be valid from Oct. 1, 2020 through Sept. 30, 2021. Whether you've run one Disney race or you're an experienced marathoner, keep scrolling to take a closer look at the different membership tiers ahead.
