Hello! My 9 yr old son and I will be traveling to WDW for the Princess Half Marathon weekend this coming Feb. He is excited to do the kids one mile run, but he was wondering if I would be allowed to run the race with him? Thank you!

Hi Eean! Thank you for bringing your question to the Disney Parks Moms Panel. You and your son are going to have the most magical trip for the upcoming Disney Princess Half Marathon Weekend! Not only are parents allowed to run with their kiddos in the runDisney Kids Races, but I'd fully encourage it! It's a great event where y'all will be able to create some truly amazing memories. Plus you can spend even more time together leading up to it going on training runs together to get him ready! For more information be on the lookout for the Digital Event Guide to be posted on the runDisney website under the Runner Info tab in just a few short weeks. Please let me know if you have any other questions before your upcoming runcation! -Lindsey ºOº

Meet the Panelist: Lindsey, Illinois

My name is Lindsey and I'm a wife, mommy, engineer and self-proclaimed "Disnerd!" I've always loved Disney and the joy it brings to so many people. I've been to Disney more times than I can count, but I found an even greater passion for all things Disney after discovering runDisney events. There is no better motivation to train for a race than a trip to the most magical place on earth! Learn More About Lindsey
