On today’s episode, we’re joined by filmmaker and storyteller Andres Vargas, the creative force behind the newly released documentary called Crossing Your Line.

We chat about the inspiration behind the project, what it was like bringing reality of training for a marathon and the magic of race weekends to the screen, and some incredible stories that remind us why the runDisney community is so special. Andres gives us a behind-the-scenes look at how the film came together — from concept to finish line — and the moments that made it all worth it.

So lace up your shoes, and step into the magic with us!

On today’s episode, we’re putting our runner instincts to the test with a little game we’re calling Riskin' It for the Biscuit! Every runner has faced those pre-race temptations — from wearing something brand new on race day, to skipping your warm-up because the corrals are packed, or eating that questionable spicy dinner the night before.

We’ll be deciding which running gambles are worth the risk… and which ones could totally crumble under race-day pressure. Let’s see just how bold we’re feeling today.

So, lace up your shoes, decide what biscuits you’re riskin' it for, and step into the magic with us!
