Overweight and Undertrained : How to Survive the Walt Disney World Dopey Challenge Without Proper Training

By Florian Mauer

If you have ever thought about doing something a little crazy like the Dopey Challenge in Walt Disney World, but are unsure if you can make it, then perhaps this book can help you to make a decision. You don't know what the Dopey Challenge is? Just imagine doing four races in four days and every day the race distance is at least doubled - and all of this in early January. You begin with an easy 5km run on Thursday, a nice 10km run on Friday, a warmup half marathon on Saturday and finish the whole thing off with a full marathon on Sunday. The total race distance is 48.65 miles. Combine this with walking through the parks in Disney World with your family after the races and you can see that doing the Dopey Challenge probably is not your normal walk in the park (literally speaking).So you may think now that only the fittest people who train many hours each week for several months are able to complete this challenge - think again! In this book I will show you how the average Dopey Challenge finisher looked like in 2016, then write about my own training in preparation as well as my race execution and afterwards show you a lot more finisher time break-downs (useful or not).
