The athletes swim through the Seven Seas Lagoon, bike around Magic Kingdom Resort Area, and ending with a 2 mile run through Magic Kingdom Park. This popular triathlon for women is the 19th year running at the Walt Disney World Resort! The other popular sporting involves mud…yes, I did say mud! The Muddy Buddy is a team event on Saturday, May 10 at Disney’s Wide World of Sports. This endurance event incorporates trail running and biking. The big fun of this event is the huge mud pit at the end of the race. The whole team has to run or crawl through the mud pit and cross the finish line together. This is a really fun adventure race!
