Don Muchow Is Running From Disneyland To Disney World
Don Mucho a marketing executive from Plano, Texas is about to embark on a pretty fantastic feat. He hopes to be the first ultra runner to make a transatlantic trip from mouse to mouse. That’s right, literally from Disneyland to Walt Disney World.
This past Saturday, Muchow started his Run Across America journey leaving Newport Beach. His trek will last a gruelling 98 days where he’ll finish up in Melbourne, Fla. What makes this trip even more impressive is that it will be fastest run ever buy a Type 1 diabetic.
After starting his run at Newport Beach, his first stop was Harbor Boulevard in Anaheim where he made a brief appearance to the esplanade between Disneyland and Disney California Adventure. If all goes to schedule, he’ll pass through Walt Disney World 94 days later! He hopes to make his final stop in Melbourne, Florida on May 8th.
So what does Muchow want to do when he gets to Disney World? According to a recent piece in the O.C. Register he wants to, “Eat, get a massage and go ride It’s a Small World.”
But before that Muchow must journey through 9 states, through the Mojave Desert, crossing Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia!
He documented his start day and time at Disneyland with a photo and GPS reading and he’ll do the same when he gets to Disney World. He’s hopeful his Disneyland-to-Disney World feat will qualify for a Guinness World Record.
