Get ready to reach for the sky and grab your rootinest, tootinest crew! We’re not toying around as the runDisney Springtime Surprise Weekend returns to Walt Disney World Resort for its second year, April 13-16, 2023. The final event in the 2022-2023 runDisney race season celebrates the power of friendship and the magic of Pixar with the Pixar Pals. Racers are encouraged to celebrate the running buddies that keep them going, the support systems that cheer from the sidelines, and the iconic characters that lift each other up time and time again.
