I'm nervous because my pace isn't very consistent, but I'm averaging ok. The absolute slowest I've caught my walking pace was 22 mpm but just for a second before I pick it back up. During those slower times, could I be swept, or is that only if the last group is around me? I've heard it's based...

Good luck everyone!

Thank you so much! Is that really a good time? I thought it was on the slower side. I'm concerned about being swept because my pace gets very slow at parts, and I make it up later. If I got too slow in the last corral, wouldn't I get swept?

They haven't called me back, and I fear the race will fill up before they do. If that happens, I'm going to train hard for next year (but I'm doing Everest this year!) I figure if my time is close to qualifying now, in a year it should be really good! I live in Orlando which makes things easier...

I'm almost certain I'm signing up. It's just me, as my husband will stay with the kids. I'm concerned about my time. I did my first 13.2 today at 3:38:37, which is a little slow.

It looks like I'm going to have to wait for next year's princess half (still doing the 5K though) and I'm looking at the Everest Challenge! Husband will have to stay with the kids, so I'll be a one woman team. Is anyone else planning on doing this race?

I ran my first 13.2 in 3:38:37. I'm not thinking that's fast enough, especially if I'm in the back corral.

Did my first ever 1/2 at 3:38:37 for 13.2 miles! It's on the slower side, so I'm not sure if I should register. If I registered now, would I be in the last corral?

Thanks. I'm sure I'd be disappointed if I got swept, like anyone would really. I think what I'm going to do is go out for 3:30 to 4:00 tomorrow and see how far I get, and at what pace. If it's within that time, I'll register (if it hasn't filled up!) Thank you! Do you have any tips for...

Yes, I'm considering registering last minute for the half. My pace, sadly, is that slow. I have WPW arrhythmia and run with a chest strap hrm. Doc says as long as my heart doesn't act up while I'm exercising, I'm ok. I know the pacing should be 16 mpm, but if last year's final finisher did...

WOW! Seriously??!?:banana: Thanks! My body doesn't want to stop! My husband is afraid I'll burn out. Can you offer any advice on improving my time? Right now I'm very, very slow. My 5K is about 55:03. I'm hoping to try to go out for 3:30 tomorrow and see what my times are like then. It's tough...

Hi! I'm doing the 5K in stroller division. I hope someone with experience can advise me. This is my first ever race. I didn't realize I would have to walk with the stroller, so I trained to run (C25K app from active.com -two days left!) I'm able to complete a 5K now with minimal effort...

Thank you so much! I'm ridiculously excited. I've been training hard, doing a 5K twice so far this week. I'm so tempted to do the half, but my time is just too slow.

Hello! I'm a first timer, and I was training to run the 5K before it dawned on me that we're stroller division and I won't be allowed to run. How crazy would it be to do the half, too, with the intention to walk it mostly? These are my first ever races, but I want to run! This group seemed like...

Hello! I'm very excited to say I'll be participating in the Royal Family 5K stroller division this month! This is so important to me because I have a heart condition and two years ago was diagnosed with a lung condition. I recently found out the lung diagnosis was possibly wrong, and couldn't be...
