Every year about this time, I start to panic about my training. I always feel as if I haven't done enough. Tomorrow, I am going to do 11 miles at about a 17 minute mile. During the week, I will do 2 or 3 days of treadmill with a 13:40 pace for 3 miles. On the off days, I go to the gym to do...

Got the 10 miles done. Came home to broken water heater so had a nice cold shower. Brrrrrr!

On my way out the door to do 10 miles. Figure if I put it out here in the cosmos I have to get it done. Either that or I am stalling getting started!

I should have known to check here first. I just did an online "chat" with a Disney CM regarding purchasing the AP certificate and using the information to register even though the AP would not have been activated. She said that was no problem. I would be able to register. Now, I find out...

Thank you for the information We will be changing our plans!

We have never stayed at Old Key West prior to a half marathon but always saw princesses walking down the driveway a few minutes prior to the start of the race. This year we are booked at Old Key West but I read that they are. Ot allowing anyone to join their corrals directly from the resort...

I received the same survey and responded that I would definitely do the race. My husband is in full support. Hopefully, they will get this race together.

Thank goodness for cloud Coverage. I was really worried about the heat and humidity. But it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be. I wonder if they are going to change the pace requirement. When we started doing this race 5 years ago, a walker could maintain a 16 minute pace...

A week after my daughter and I registered for the race, my daughter found out she was pregnant. She is going to walk with me to the Magic Kingdom so that we can have our picture taken in front of the castle. She doesn't want to end our string of 5 pictures. She would like to drop out of the...

My DD found out that she is pregnant the week after we registered. But she still wants to walk with me to the castle in MK so that we can get our picture taken. This is our 5th Princess and she doesn't want to stop the string of pictures that we have from the castle. She would then like to...

Did my last 10 mile walk. Kept a pretty good pace but definitely counting on adrenaline on race day. Two weeks to taper. No shin splints or sore feet. Will continue short walks and work outs. I need to stop worrying about the sweepers!

Did my last 10 mile walk. No shin splints, no foot pain, no shoulder pain! What's going on?? I'm just going to keep my short walks and regular workouts. Now if I can just stop worrying! Anybody have a way to do that?

I am thinking of doing it this year. My son says that I travel all over the country to do half marathons and one of the best in the country is in my own hometown and I haven't done it! Cincinnati is very hilly. I hear from friends who have done it that the worst ones are at the beginning...

DD and I did the Tinkerbell and the Princess last year to get the coast to coast. One major difference is that the Princess is entirely contained by Disney property, while the Tink goes outside of the property. So, in California you are going down business streets, etc. Both are relatively...

Nope, my name is Meg. I walked with my daughter who is pregnant this year. But, I did meet a great lady before the race who was walking. we started talking because we were all going for the Coast to Coast medal, having just completed the Tinkerbell in Dl. We ran into her again at the end of...

I'm thinking about the pig. A lot depends on the new grand baby. When my daughter was pregnant before she delivered three months early. If this one comes on time and has no problems, I will probably do the Flying Pig.

Another walker here. This will be my 5th Princess half but I get just as nervous as I did before my first one. Because I have gotten older (65) I am trying to do a lot more strength training, core training and stationary bike work. Today I did 8 miles with a lot of hill work at a 16:30 pace...

Did my 8 mile walk today. Windy but sunny. Had a time of 16:20 minute mile. That was with lots of Cincinnati hills! I get so nervous every year about being swept. Hasn't happened yet, but I've moved up to the 65 year old age group so I am getting older. To compensate, I have been doing a lot...

We were just there yesterday for soft opening. CM told us that new Fantasyland would be open everyday unless there was a major problem that developed.

We were there yesterday for soft opening. CM told us that barring a major problem of some type they would be staying open daily. Be Our Guest dining hall was not open and, of course, the diamond mine ride.
