Ep 258 Stand Up & Start Lines with Devin Siebold of the Theme Park Comedians
runDisney season always sneaks up fast, and the jump from “comfortable miles” to true long-run work can feel brutal. We talk openly about the messy middle of marathon training: humidity that drains you, the mental math of “Can I really add 12 more miles in January?

Miles, Magic & Comedy with Devin Siebold
Devin Siebold of the Theme Park Comedians, joins us on the podcast. He shares his path from educator to stand-up comic and explains why laughter is more than entertainment: it’s a signal of safety and a tool people reach for during stress. He pulls back the curtain on filming viral Disney World comedy at Epcot, balancing creativity with respect for cast members and guests, and navigating the reality of being recognized in the parks. He also talks runDisney memories, first-marathon excitement, and why he chooses charity bibs for St. Jude and No Kid Hungry.
We also dig into Devin’s Run Disney journey, favorite race memories, and why fundraising bibs matter to him, including a Tower of Terror fear challenge done for charity and the little details that make race weekends unforgettable
The Race Report Sponsored by Stoked Metabolic Coaching
This week’s Race Report Spotlight features Jenny, who took on the Annapolis 10‑Miler in beautiful Annapolis, MD a race that winds through the historic downtown streets, past waterfront views, brick sidewalks.
Jenny ran this one as a medical runner, keeping an eye out for anyone who needed support along the course. She only had to stop once — for a runner who asked for a gel, then decided they didn’t like the flavor and passed on it anyway.
