Avengers Super Heroes Half Marathon Weekend

Written by Maggie Klimentova

This past weekend, thousands of runners conquered the Avengers Super Heroes Half Marathon Weekend at Disneyland in Anaheim, California!

On November 10-12, participants—including Lorraine, Ryan, and James (check out their special episode of THWIP! The Big Marvel Show! now)—challenged themselves, and each other, in a variety of races, including the Spider-Man 5K, the Thor 10K, the kid’s race, and the half marathon itself. A few daring entrants even took on the Infinity Gauntlet Challenge; those who completed both the Thor 10K and the Half Marathon—a whopping 19.3 miles in total—received a Gauntlet medal for their stellar achievement!

Participants ran in costume as their favorite heroes and posed with various Marvel characters along the course, taking a quick breather (and selfie) alongside the likes of Captain America, Hawkeye, Black Widow, Thor, Spider-Man, Doctor Strange, and Loki. Music from the Marvel Studios films energized the runners as they trekked through the Disneyland Resort.

Check out a visual recap of the event in the gallery below! And congratulations to all participants on making it an incredible weekend!
