Official 2016 Princess Half Marathon Thread

[Mil leech]

Does anybody else think run Disney should update the photos on the princess half page ? I mean really...I have seen those same pics for at least 3yrs now !

I agree! Anyone ever wonder why they have different prices for different dates when it sells out in minutes?

real quick, if my son who is 9 does the 1 mile run, can i run with him? if so , do i have register myself as well, or is it just assumed that parents will be with their children? same for the 1-3 tear olds . thanks all and good luck registering today!

asking again, as I registered my toddler, but don't know if i have to register myself. Also, anyone else using KNO as sitters for the race?

I used to, but Avengers is still open and in tier 3 pricing...

With how hectic registration is right now, I'm trying to keep up with everyone posting their registration confirmation, but if I haven't listed you in Post #1 or you're listed incorrectly, feel free to shoot me a PM and I'll update. This thread is getting a LOT of action today, lol.

I'm on the list for the GSC. I'm registered for that and the 5K (which I'm doing with my mom and DD16)

Not positive about how the mile works. But parents in the divisions my kids have done (up to age 8 - 400m dash I think) parents are free to run with their children.

Ugh! Yes, they should! And replace them with ME, lol.

I wouldn't even mind if they Photoshopped out my tattoos, haha!

You do not have to register yourself. I ran with my daughter this year and had no problems.

I am flying a cousin in as a sitter.... probably the much more expensive option!

Back in the day (as in, like, three years ago) these races weren't as popular and didn't sell out in a day. When I registered for my first PHM (2012), I didn't sign up until July 2011, which was tier 2 or 3 pricing.

I may be totally wrong about this, but ... last year didn't they announce it after registration?

thank you. I was afraid they wouldn't let me in without registration and he's obviously too young to go alone lol

Thank you! Those are from my 3rd & 4th PHMs (2014 & 2015), it took running my first two PHMs (2012 & 2013) to realize that I wasn't too tired to ham it up for the camera by mile 13.

 

[Ariel484]

@Luv2Run they totally should use your pics, you're so cute!!

I have no idea, but for the 2016 January races they started CCC registration on the same day as all of the other races.

Hello everyone....

Since my nerves have calmed down now that I have officially registered for the glass slipper challenge... I'd like to introduce myself.

My name is Rebecca and I'm from Houston 27 years old no kids no husband but I have recently fallen in love with Run/ walking it started off as a way to be healthier and now I'm like completely obsessed.

Since this is my first ever race... Although I might be doing a 5k later this year I'd love to get to know you all !

I'll be essay to pick out just call me the fluffy jogger! I'll be attending the race alone and would love to have new friends when I get there.
