2013 Solo traveling Princesses

[ColleenG]

I'm technically not a princess, but one in heart for the race, and I will be running solo. I live in the area, going with the fiancee, she doesn't run, so I am doing it alone, dressed as Rapunzel on top of it.

We will love you just the same! That's awesome that you are dressing as Rapunzel. I'm going as her too. Still have to get a costume together. I am also doing the WDW Marathon and since it is right around the corner I have been a little focused on that. It's my first marathon so I am getting a little jittery.

Awesome! There was a dude who ran dressed as rapunzel complete with a wig who finished with me! He was in all my photos! Good luck!

Hello!

I will be running my first Princess Marathon in February. I am a military spouse living overseas and will be running alone. I am a wife, mother of two, and a teacher!

I want to run the race at a 12 min or less pace. My goal is to finish in 2 hours 45 minutes or less.

My mom and sister may come down but as of right now I am traveling alone and for sure running alone.

As of right now I am staying at Saratoga. If anyone would like to meet up before the race too, that would be awesome!

Any groups or anyone out there who needs a partner?

Thanks

I am running and traveling solo. I run at about a 12 min or less pace too. I do plan to stop for pictures, but would love some company if you want to run together or meet up somewhere along the way. I'm staying at Boardwalk. Saratoga is where we usually stay. Love it there.

Hello!

Yes, that would be great. I would love to stop for photos too. That sounds like fun. I would love to run together! Please no pressure though. I am very easy going and if you need to go a little faster or slower, I understand. We do not have to be obligated to run the entire race together But, if that is how it turns out I would not mind at all.

I think that I am at the 2:45 min corral. This is all new to me. If you send me a private message I will give you my contact info. Currently I am in Spain and will be moving back to the States at the end of the month.

Thanks.

I'll be running and traveling solo as well. I'm at CSR and will also be doing the race retreat. Hoping to be around a 12:30 pace (doing run/walk intervals), but being sick for the past couple of weeks has really put a damper on my training so we will see. I'm doing the Tink this month, so we'll see how that goes. Should be interesting given that I've only run twice since Dec. 15th

I'm hopping to be at a 12:30 pace. I'm closer to 13 right now. I also have the race retreat.

Hi everyone! Just wanted to check in. Hard to believe the PHM will be here before we know it. I will be heading down to the World on Thursday for the Marathon. When I get back I will get things more oraganized to meet up. Hope everyone's training is going well. Just remember you CAN do this! If it's your first, you will be hooked! No one puts on a race like Disney does!

What time does the 5K start? My friend who is running the full with me is also doing the 5K with her DD. If I can get my butt up and moving I will head over to Epcot to cheer on the 5K Dissers! Are you wearing a costume?

Gun goes off at 6:30am. UGH. No costume for me, pink tech shirt, black shorts, bib#9826. Staying at the Poly the nite before. Then, of course.......next month PHM

Maybe I will make it. I need to get myself on a good sleep schedule so I can get up at 3 AM for the marathon.

Sounds good!

I will be running solo. I didn't get the race retreat before it sold out...boo. But, I'm just so glad to be doing this race. We will be at Beach Club before the race and the AKL afterwards. I would love to meet up for a lunch or dinner and possibly before the race. My aunt will be travelling with me and doing the family 5k the day before. It is getting so close.

There is someone on the Princess thread looking to sell her race retreat.....

I'll be traveling and running alone. My travel dates are 2/22-26 and I'll be staying at CBR. I'll go to the expo on the 22d and probably Tutto Gusto for Pasta that night. There is a fish meal I like at the AoA resort, so I will probably head over there for dinner on Saturday.

I have the race retreat, so will likely have breakfast there after the race. I have a dinner reservation at Sanaa that night.

That is it for my meal planning. Most likely will go to my fav counter service places for the rest of my meals. I am deciding between the 3 day and 4 day hopper from RunDisney.

 

[gudrench3]

Really? I wonder if anyone has taken it. Do you remember who the person was? I want it so bad. . Thanks so much!

 

[sunnygal041]

Well, I'm at the CSR from 2/23-25. Promised my friend Walter, the bartender at the Poly's Tambu Lounge, I would stop by on Sat or Sunday night. All are welcome to join me!

Hey Colleen! Did you have a blast last weekend? The 5K was sooooo crowded and hot. Looking forward to the PHM, hopefully won't be so bad. BTW, I am originally from Woodbridge, living in Fla since 1991. Where in NJ are you?
