The Great Medal Caper!

August 2, 2012 | Uncategorized

 

On Tuesday, runDisney announced a fun and cute little challenge, to help find the missing marathon medal! What happened to it? Check out my video to find out more!

Below is the official runDisney video explaining the challenge

Come help us find Donald in The Great Medal Caper!

 

HELP US REVEAL MICKEY’S 20th ANNIVERSARYWALT DISNEY WORLD® MARATHON MEDAL
Our old friend Donald Duck caused a bit of trouble earlier today when security footage captured him running off with Mickey’s 20th Anniversary Walt Disney World Marathon medal design!

Turns out he got a bit jealous and loved it so much, he hit the road to find a designer of his own. Little did he know, we’ve already created a new Half Marathon medal for him too!

Join runDisney Fans all over the world in the search for Donald at the runDisney Facebook page. He’s already been spotted on the West Coast, and only your “Fan Magic” can help us find him to reveal the brand new Half Marathon medal and reveal Mickey’s special 20th Anniversary Walt Disney World Marathon medal design. In addition to seeing this morning’s breaking news, you’ll also unlock a few runDisney goodies along the way!

Don’t wait too long, these races are filling up! Here are the current capacity percentages:

Marathon (78% Full), Half Marathon (67% Full) Goofy’s Race and a Half Challenge (87% Full).

    I really like the look of last years 15th anniversary Donald medal with the larger head and and painted or acrylic colors on it. I would to see something sort of similar but a little more special to celebrate the 20th anniversary.

    How on earth are we going to run 39.3 miles in about 30 hours? Are you just as scared for this as I am?

    My ideal medal would be a 24K gold medal shaped like the sun with diamonds and emeralds encrusted on the edge with Chinese silk around the neck. Ok, Ok… I think Donald duck would pretty darn awesome!

If you want a luxury hotel feel in Destin Florida, but still something that caters to families (hello kids club!) then this is it! Your search stops here! Drop any questions you may have in the comments and I am happy to answer. 🏖️

If you are doing Disney World, this is an easy clo If you are doing Disney World, this is an easy close by dinner to slip into one of your nights that will have you saying: “why didn’t we come here sooner?!?” (Ad) 🍝 

Simply Capri is just outside the parks and feels like a calm reset from the chaos of the day. Soft lighting, relaxed pace, and an authentic Italian menu where everything feels familiar in the best way. (Their pizza oven was sent over FROM Italy!) 🍕 

Enjoy cocktails on the patio or dessert under the soft lighting after dark. It still feels like part of your vacation, just with a slower rhythm and high quality delicious food. 

Save this reel for a night when you want a break from park food but still want something near by!! 🇮🇹
