Friends: Have a question for all, but especially one-time Dopeyers: Is doing Dopey worth it? I am considering Dopey for 2023 to complete my triumvirate of medals: 25th WDW Marathon (2018), 50th Celebration Marathon (2022) & 10th Dopey (2023)???
Background: I have really enjoyed the Marathon experience, and do like the idea of the 4 day challenge. That said, I'm wondering if its worth the fairly significant extra cost, four straight early morning wakeups, and less park time. My wife doesn't run, so while I'll occasionally chat for a minute during the race, I run/walk/run so tend to be a fairly solitary runner.
Once you have done the Marathon, are the other races simply shorter versions of the same thing? For those that have completed one, have you found it rewarding enough to make up for the aforementioned negatives?
Thanks all!
