    My 13 year old and I are hoping to run the Princess 5k in 2025. Does she need her own RunDisney account? How do I make sure we can register together?

    Hey there, Christina! I am so glad you sped by planDisney as you get ready to lace up your sneakers and head to the most magical place to race!

    runDisney bibs go as quickly as Eliud Kipchoge's race toward a marathon world record. Registration for the 2025 Disney Princess Half Marathon Weekend opens tomorrow, July 30, at 10 a.m. Eastern, so it's time to get ready, set, and go! 

    I always log into the runDisney site with my MyDisney account at least 10 minutes before registration opens. To do this, go to the runDisney homepage and scroll to the bottom for "Manage Account." Once logged in, go to the event page for Princess Weekend and hit "refresh" until the registration button appears—like trying to get a Virtual Queue for TRON Lightcycle / Run. When you see the registration button appear, it's Go! time. 

    When I did multiple registrations for Marathon Weekend, I was able to add my registration to my cart and then register a friend before checking out. One thing to note: your bib is not guaranteed until the entire process is complete, including processing your payment. On the positive side, you won't register one and then hope to get a second registration. You will, however, have to be speedy to get both of you registered and then move through payment on your way to the "Congratulations, You're In!" photo finish. 

    To run through the process more quickly, I type my credit card information in a Word document or Notepad so I can copy it beforehand and paste it into the box on the payment screen. I also note the expiration date and verification number so I am not trying to find them in a dash.

    You can register your daughter with her name, address, e-mail, birthdate, and emergency contact. I used my own email with my friend's registration and I got the registration confirmation emails.

    I hope you have time to warm up, stretch and move your fingers quickly across the keyboard to make it to the Registration Finish Line.

    If you have any questions as you plan your runDisney race weekend, please come back by planDisney. We're cheering for you!

    Every Mile is Magic!
