Each year Team Breakthrough T1D provides Breakthrough T1D fundraisers entry into some of the country’s most exciting challenge events.

This January, Team Breakthrough T1D brings our fight against type 1 diabetes (T1D) back to Walt Disney World for the Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend!

The race weekend lasts four magical days with a different race each day, including: a 5K on Thursday, 10K on Friday, Half Marathon on Saturday, and Full Marathon on Sunday. For our super runners, there are two multi-race options which include the Goofy Challenge (Race in the Half Marathon and the Full Marathon on Sunday) and the Dopey Challenge (race in all four distances).

New for 2020!

• You will be able to stay wherever you want—no more having to stay at a specific location or have a certain park pass
• You can Run Disney with Team Breakthrough T1D…Your Way! This year if you secure your own race entry through runDisney for the race distance of your choice, you can register as a Team Breakthrough T1D supporter with no fundraising minimum. Breakthrough T1D Supporters will have the opportunity to earn Team Breakthrough T1D swag and race weekend benefits.
