Hiya, Kimberlee! Registering for a
runDisney race weekend is one of my favorite things to do. Like Tigger, I could happily bounce from race to race to race. Woo hoo hoo hoo!
I am excited you want to lace up your sneakers and join runDisney for a race through
Walt Disney World Resort, too. Members of
Club runDisney can register for races before they become available to the general public. And I have heard some charity organizations that offer bibs have had runners sign up with them before the general registration date. If I knew of an offer to pay $10 and secure my bib, I'd race over quickly, but this is not offered through runDisney.
Registration for
Disney Princess Half Marathon Weekend 2025 opens at 10 a.m. Eastern on Tuesday, July 30. These are a few tips I've picked up registering for these events over the past few years:
- Open the event page by 9:45 a.m. Eastern and log into your MyDisney account. To do this, scroll to the bottom of the runDisney homepage and select "Manage Account," which you can find under "Help & Support." Open the Princess Weekend event page and select the 10K registration button before 10 a.m. This will put you in a virtual waiting room. Your place in line be assigned randomly at 10 a.m. Everyone who enters after 10 a.m. will be placed in line in the order they log in, behind all of the early birds.
- Your bib is not confirmed until the entire process is complete. Do you have proof of the time? Fantastic! Don't enter it now; you can do that after registration is complete. I don't even scroll to indicate the t-shirt size and cut I want. I click quickly at whatever I see and change that later, too.
- Have your credit card or form of payment in hand. I enter my credit card number in a Word document or Notepad and copy it so I can paste it quickly. I also type my expiration date and verification code in the document, so I do not have to look for them in a rush.
runDisney races are popular for so many reasons. Getting registered is an event in itself. Once you are in, the rush of excitement begins. It is the most magical place to race.
I hope the race to register has you dashing across the finish line. If you have any other questions as you are planning your trip, please breeze back by
planDisney. We're cheering for you!
Every Mile is Magic!
