I would like to know as well. I'm running the half and full. I would stop for a pic with a character I never get to see, but won't stop for the ones I see all the time.

They do not print a list.....only some cast members know. If its anything like the last few years I would expect probably 2 or three characters who have been missing from the parks. Funny thing: the more rare characters have been out for the half and not the full over the past two years. This may have been due to the weather last year. Of course rare characters, at least to me, do not include characters like the Country Bears who have always been out for both races. Other "uncommon" (not rare) characters will appear like some villains. Also Mickey, Minnie, Donald, and Goofy have been out in some different attire. Another warning for first timers, oftentimes depending on where you are in the race, there is a good chance you will miss out on a few of these because the characters usually rotate with other characters. I have missed some good ones due to this.
The last three years rare characters:
2010: Wilbur and Lewis Robinson, and Bowler Hat Guy, who rotated with Phineas and Ferb (I missed P and F), Barbossa, Louis the Alligator, and some reindeer from the Christmas parade (?). Donald, and Mickey, roating with Goofy, and Minnie in golfing attire.
2009: the Hunchback characters; Esmerelda, Phobeus, and Quasi, the entire Robin Hood gang (including the very rare Little John), and Prince Eric (who is not as rare anymore). Mickey, Donald, and Goffy in Revolutionary war dress.
2008: Darkwing, Scrooge, and Launchpad, Hades and John Smith.
The number of characters was down last year, again this may have been due to the weather...it was snowing . In 2009 they promised more characters in their advertising but there were actually less . Hopefully we will have good weather and Disney will bring out some gems.
Loads of trips since 1974...

I saw some pics of the Hoop Dee Doo cast in Liberty Square/Frontierland at one of the marathons. Any idea what year that was? thanks

Day 2 update from the 5k:
Buzz & Woody met at that start line and kicked off the race
Face Green Army Man
Mulan
Snow White & Dopey
Geppetto (switching with Pinocchio on the Italy balcony)
Chip and Dale in kimonos(heard someone say Minnie was swapping with them - balcony only)
Emile (presumably swapping with Remy, but I didnt ask)
7 Character locations and only 5 were photo ops.
Pretty weak...
-
Those were the exact characters my DH and kids saw yesterday, but they saw Minnie in her kimono, not Chip 'n Dale.
Phineas and Ferb were out this morning in Epcot for 1/2 marathon. Check our Twitter feed for pic.

Okay, just got the lowdown from my DH. Fab 4 at start in track gear. Rapinzel, Flynn, Tiana, Naveen, alligator, Pooh, Tigger, various Pirate characters including Jack and Barbosa, Alice in MK. Penguin and Chip 'n Dale near Grand Flo. Fab 4 in golf attire at Golf course near Shades of Green. Stitch around Poly. Tall stilt guys on route from MK to Epcot. Phineas and Ferb and Stitch again in Epcot. Donald and Goofy at end in track gear. Daisy, Pluto, Clarabell and Horace were posing in family meet up area.
That's all he could remember.

The face green army man was directing runners to corrals. Tink and Silvermist were lurking in the dark on EPCOT Center Drive - I didnt see them till I passed them. Pooh and Piglet were out when I passed. Mayor Weaver, Victoria Trumpetto, and Hildegard Olivia Harding were on Main St. Buzz was in Tomorrowland. I saw Alice, Mad Hatter, and Queen of Hearts at the Teacups. Peter Pan, Wendy, Fairy Godmother, Prince Charming, and Tremaines were in Fantasyland. Liverlips and Shaker were in Frontierland. Bert and Mary Poppins were also at GF. Chip n Dale were out with no special outfits on Asian...I mean Floridian Way. Duffy was also at EPCOT.
I also got a report that Woody, Jessie, and Bullseye were at the Race Retreat.

Mickey, Minnie, Goofy and Donald also appeared in several different costumes, like their golfing attire and marathon outfits.
These characters were exclusive to the full marathon: Gaphetto, Pinnochio, Max, Woody, Jessie, Frozone, Mr and Mrs. Incredible, Mike and Sully, Russell, Carl, and Doug, Rafiki, Baloo, King Louie, Brer Fox, Brer Bear, Brer Rabbit, Belle and Beast, Mulan, Mushu, Aladdin, Jasmine, and Marie.

Kudos to Disney for bringing out these rare finds!
Oh and BTW we met and hung out with Likestoworkout from the boards this week. I love meeting my Intercot friends!

I'm going to merge this in with the other thread where we've been discussing this past weekend.

Zorro was the coolest find of the weekend by far.

Add Mary Poppins, Burt, Mr. Penguin, and Duffy to the list of those out for both races.
Did anyone happen to see who was rotating with the Pinocchio characters an backstage Epcot. There were two groups of three standing there. One one side were the Pinocchio characters and the other side there stood Max, Launchpad, and Scrouge. I am not sure who rotated with any of these? Asian Way any help?

I was only in the 5k and the half. I did not get to see the backstage piece of EPCOT from when you all ran in the back gate to the exit of World Showplace, sorry. Thanks for the report!
