Hi Kaitlyn,
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel, and thank you for your question. I’ve got big
runDisney dreams, so I love that you’re getting ready to register for the Disney Princess Half Marathon Weekend. Every step is pure magic, and from the costumes and characters to the amazing sense of accomplishment (and, if you’re me, tears) at the finish line, the whole experience is amazing.
Early runDisney registration is one of
many magical perks of being a Walt Disney World Annual Passholder. I saw those dates and got so excited; as a planner (that’s why I’m here!), I love designing everything from my training schedule to my race day outfit. Kaitlyn, I checked with several runDisney alums as well as a Disney Cast Member, who told me that, because the number of early registrations permitted is very limited, only Passholders may complete early registration. I’ve got my fingers crossed that your friend secures a spot during general registration, but please advise your friend to jump online as soon as that registration window opens, as some of the races do sell out. Be sure to follow
runDisney and the
Disney Parks Blog on social media for updates and information.
Enjoy your runDisney journey, Kaitlyn! As Hercules would say, I know you can go the distance and that every mile will be worth the while. Have so much fun training, designing that costume, and rocking your race medal!
Wishing you fearless, proud, and strong training,
Robyn
