All the races are at epcot… i dont see this as being a plus. I was so excited to run animal kingdom for a change.. and now i dont know if i even want to register for this run.

My goodness! People just don’t appreciate what they have anymore. A lot people well never get to run a 5k through Epcot. So go run the wine & dine 5k at Epcot for those who aren’t as lucky as you are. Or you can stay home because I bet someone will appreciate your medal and new tech shirt that you gave up. Since it’s not good enough.
