Wave assignments will be listed on your bib number and given during packet pick-up at Disney’s Health and Fitness Expo. There are three waves. Waves are assigned based on your estimated ﬁnishing time. Each wave will be directed to walk out to the start area beginning with Wave A, followed by Wave B, and then Wave C.
