A Podcast for the runDisney community, Rise and Run is a group of 7 friends united by their love of runDisney events. We discuss our experiences as middle-of-the-pack runners at Walt Disney World and at other running events. In our Race Report, we recognize the running achievements of our listeners. We also frequently invite other members of the runDisney community to share their knowledge and experiences with us. Mostly, though, we're a group of Disney runners who love to have fun.
