Disney Marathon 2010 Florida, Jan 9 (THAINDIAN NEWS) The Disney Marathon Weekend 2010 is on and it will continue through 10th January 2010. The Disney marathon weekend is being held in Orlando, Florida, site of Disney World, and it features a half-marathon on Saturday, and the full marathon on Sunday. Even though the marathon is on, yet it could be jeopardized by the chilly weather that is plaguing the region these days.

The temperatures at the start of both the Half Marathon on Saturday and Marathon on Sunday are projected to be in the low 30s with highs reaching the low 50s each day. With such temperatures, the Disney Marathon dress would need to be changed, as it wouldn’t suffice in such weather. The usual Disney marathon forecast implies that the typical spandex and shorts wear may not work so well.

Because of the chilly weather the participants are being asked to dress up warmly in multiple layers. When the participants are running then they would start feeling warm and then they can start shedding the extra layers of clothes. And the organizers say that the clothes that will be discarded will be donated to charity.

The Sunday’s Disney marathon will begin and end at Epcot Center. A whooping number of participants have already registered for the event. The registered runners exceed 23,000.
