Lots of people have found my blog in the past few days by searching for Disney Princess Half Marathon. That’s right, it’s just around the corner! I’m excited! Are you?
This will be my second Princess Half, and I’m looking forward to it. I love the cheesyness of it being a women’s themed race – not only do we get the characters out on the course (including the pirates), but last year, there was some additional eye-candy in the form of a pair of firefighters waving at the runners as we went by. Some would say this is sexist. I say this is awesome. In general, I love events put on by runDisney, so I’m counting the days til I get to go.
Since I ran Tinker Bell, this also means I’ll be getting my Coast to Coast for the second year in a row!
I’ve got a lot of Disney races on my schedule. I’ve decided to run the Tower of Terror Ten Mile race. It’s right before my friend Katie’s wedding, and will be a good weekend to hang out before the wedding week (where she will be quite busy, I assume). I really love the ten mile distance, though I’m worried about the late night race.
I have also booked a hotel room for Disney Marathon Weekend 2013. I think I’m going to be signing up for the 20th Anniversary of the Disney Marathon – Mickey 20! It’s definitely a scary thought, and I’m nervous about training for a full marathon. But I have a lot of friends also planning to run it, so we can train together, both in person and virtually. Anyone want to join in the fun?
