We may only be a few months into 2022, but plans for the 2023 Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend are already underway!

Not long ago we learned that the dates for this weekend are January 4th to 8th, 2023, and now the official theme for the race has been announced! Just be warned — you’re going to have to travel back to the 1990s for this. 
The theme for the runDisney 2023 Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend is Retro ’90s! Why? runDisney turns 30 in 2023, and it’s time to celebrate its birth year! We’re talking 1980s/1990s patterns (triangles and wiggly lines, anyone?) and bright colors. The 2023 Marathon Weekend is presented by State Farm.
