Beginning yesterday, runDisney fans can now sign up for the first ever Star Wars Virtual Half Marathon. You can register now through February 28 at runDisney.com or at this weekends' 2018 Walt Disney World Marathon at the Health & Fitness Expo. Guests are required to run 13.1 miles around their neighborhood, on a treadmill, or wherever you enjoy running and you'll earn a very specially-themed medal by March 31.
This new virtual run experience also includes the 2018 runDisney Kessel Run Challenge, offering runners the chance to earn a special challenge medal (seen in the middle above) for completing both the Star Wars Virtual Half Marathon from home and the Star Wars Dark Side Half Marathon on April 22 at Walt Disney World Resort.
As part of the registration process participants will have the opportunity to make a donation to Starlight Children’s Foundation on behalf of Star Wars: Force for Change. Starlight Children’s Foundation brings joy and comfort to hospitalized children and their families through programs at children’s hospitals around the world.
On behalf of Star Wars: Force for Change, runDisney is also thrilled to make an independent donation to Starlight Children’s Foundation in honor of the Star Wars Virtual Half Marathon.
