 Over the long Labor Day Weekend great friend and site contributor Renée was back out for her annual running of the Disneyland Half Marathon. She's one of a select group of Legacy Runners, that is runners who have done the Disneyland Half Marathon every year. That's an incredible achievement. Congrats Renée!!! Enjoy her awesome report below. (click on any of the pictures below to see a larger version)
First stop for all runners is the Disneyland Hotel for the Health and Fitness Expo
The expo tends to be busy first thing in the morning, but later on isn't too bad.  Legacy runners stop at a booth to pick up extra swag and get their name on a banner.
At the @runDisney booth, you can view all the medals you can earn and proudly wear in the parks after
 Doing some pre-marathon carb loading with Disneyland 60th treats. 
5am at #disneylandhalf with a few thousand of my sweaty runner friends. Here we go! Good luck to all!
The first part of the #DisneylandHalf course goes through the parks, including some backstage areas.
 World of Color and Cars Land are all lit up as the runners go through DCA
Running up Main Street and through Sleeping Beauty castle is a highlight of the course
You'll find some rare characters out, but lines tend to get quite long!
The streets of Anaheim aren't too exciting but there is still some good local entertainment
There are a ton of awesome cars that line the street and a crowd to cheer runners on
Another highlight is running through Angel Stadium!
It's not every day you get a view like this!
Churro costume yesterday rocked, but I gotta give a shout out to this guy for the best shirt today.  I always appreciate the signs that spectators make to cheer on runners and make us laugh!
