Don Muchow, a Type 1 diabetic set to run 2,830 miles from Disneyland to Disney World

Don Muchow will start his Run Across America in Newport Beach on Saturday, Feb. 1 in hopes of finishing 98 days later in Melbourne, Florida — the fastest ever run by a Type 1 diabetic. He hopes to be the first ultra-runner to tackle a transcontinental trek stretching from coast to coast and mouse to mouse when he runs 2,830 miles from Disneyland to Disney World.

Muchow, 58, a marketing director from Plano, Texas said he will “Eat, get a massage and go ride It’s a Small World,” once he finally makes it to Disney World.
