Saw @Rteetz this morning! Hopefully tomorrow I'm near the start corrals/bib check.

It has zero impact on me, but they did acknowledge Perfect on the bibs this year after saying they wouldn't. Not the first time, so not sure why anyone's surprised, but some aren't happy.

Does anyone know if the busses to the Expo will be running before the early access times for club rundisney members? The site just mentions 9:30 before general entry but early starts at 8:00. Edit: no busses that early, uber it is.

RteetzApr 04, 2026

I absolutely do understand differing opinions. My issue is with thinking that all the races are female focused when they are not. Look at this year's Springtime. Zootopia - neutral theme Winnie the Pooh - neutral theme Inside Out - neutral theme Aladdin - this one could be debatable but Jasmine is not included in what they have shown just Genie and Aladdin. Wine & Dine Aristocats - this one could be debated I suppose as well Three Caballeros - neutral Mary Poppins - could be debated but probably leans female Grumpy - neutral if not more male Marathon Weekend - all seem pretty neutral to me Pluto Chip & Dale Donald & Daisy Mickey & Minnie Goofy Dopey I am failing to see how outside of princess themes do not appeal to all ages, genders, etc. I am a huge Star Wars fan myself but that's more niche than what they have been doing with the other race weekends.

OG RunnerApr 03, 2026

Yet, the Star Wars races seemed to appeal to everyone and didn't lean more toward men or women. Please realize people are going to have different opinions and thoughts. Try to understand people have differing opinions.

surfsupdonApr 03, 2026

The "core" line has some nice polos usually, but agreed. When every model is a female showcasing the new looks, it is pretty obvious. It would be nice to have some men style cut tanks and running shorts.

RteetzMar 31, 2026

I don't see how the themes for the races outside of Princess do not appeal to all ages, and genders. That statement makes no sense to me. However, I will agree that merchandise does lack for men. That said, the vast majority of runners are female for every race weekend. It's always been that way for the most part.

GimpYancIentMar 30, 2026

The to the point answer is NO. Since this thread is about the Springtime Surprise races I will simply state I prefer the old Star Wars Dark Side / Light Side theme better that appealed to all kinds of fans, all ages and genders. The races are what they are, distance races, and as a runner it is enjoyable to run inside the Disney property. That said, the theming now does not lean toward the masculine.

Does this company even market to men anymore?
