Cold weather at the start may have you wanting to wear something for the first mile or so until you warm up. I wore my Vibram Classics and then took them off and put them in my pack and ran the rest of the way bare.
The roads connecting the theme parks are very smooth and well kept. Inside the parks you will have no issues with bare feet either since everything is immaculate.
The marathon course is pretty much the same, just more of it. I would have liked to have run the full marathon barefoot but my feet were a tad sore from the 1/2 marathon (we did the Goofy Challenge) and I didn't want to risk injury. I opted to run the full marathon in Vibram Classics instead.
Bring a camera, take lots of pictures, and have lots of fun. After all, it is the happiest place on Earth!
