This episode of One More Run, the Podcast is all about the ULTIMATE Disney vacation combo: runDisney and Disney Cruise Line! We're joined by the "DCL Duo," Brian and Sam—Disney Cruise Line experts, fellow podcasters and friends—to help you navigate the logistics of combining a runDisney race weekend with a Disney cruise.

• DCL Experts: As always, we'll get to know Brian and Sam through a fun round of "Would You Rather," where they weigh in on everything from our standard Main Street vs medal question to the best embarkation day snacks on a Disney cruise.
• Vacation Strategy: We'll ask them for tips for choosing the right cruise length and itinerary to complement a runDisney race weekend without burning out.
• Avoiding Pitfalls: They give us some advice on whether to cruise before or after the race and how to prioritize relaxation over "doing it all."
• The Good & The Bad: And we take a quick-hit look at why this "race-cation" is the ultimate reward, along with the honest realities of cost and packing logistics.

Whether you're looking for that post-race relaxation, wondering which of the Disney Cruise Line ships you should be considering or even if you've never considered going on a Disney cruise, this episode is so run and entertaining.

We ran the 2026 Disneyland Half Marathon and are here to share all the details about our experience. We talk about what they've improved since our last half marathon experience at Disneyland in 2024, things we love about this race, things that are not our favorite, how the west coast runDisney races compare to the east coast races at Walt Disney World and so much more. Whether you were these running or wising you were there, this episode is a run recap of the last Disneyland Half Marathon Weekend before they pause the west coast races again.

In this episode we're talking with our friend Lexie from Wondermakers Travel about travel planning when it comes to raca-cations. And with runDisney race registrations right around the corner, we also dive in to some tips and tricks for securing a spot at an upcoming race. After all the helpful tips and insights, we had a chance to sit down with our longtime friends Zach and Jessie about their experience at the 2026 Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend!
