Official thread for the 2010 Princess 1/2 Marathon & 5k- REGSITRATION IS OPEN!

[BlakeNJ]

Thanks to Kirstie, I now have it on my website at http://disneyrunning.com/2010PrincessHalfRaceApplilcation.pdf

Have to save money whenever you can!

Thanks for posting the link Robert. I noticed the printable form registration price is $120, same as online. Where do I save money? Is there an repeat runner's discount that can be applied?

 

[syko]

You same money by not having to pay the active fee.

Hi!!

I just talked to my SIL today, and it looks like we'll be running!
Can't wait to read through the thread and chat with everyone about the race!

 

[Ash&Wes07]

I am confused about something.

Are men allowed in this race? I see the pp has her DH running with her, but the website makes it seem like it is a female-only race.

The only reason I ask is I am using this race as an excuse for a girls-only trip to Disney because I told DH it was a female-only race and if he finds out that he can run, he's gonna want to go, LOL.

Heeeeeeyyyy Lauren... I see you are *stalking* this thread... When you gonna register???!!! Didn't you read they are giving us disposable cameras this year?! You can hang out in corral B with us! LOL

I didn't realize there would be disposable cameras! That makes it sooo worth it!

As for the stalking, I know not of what you speak~

My DH ran with me last year. Men can run, they just can't win.

How do I get the princess 1/2 logo in my signature? HELP, I am computer challenged

 

[syko]

Right click over one and save as. Upload it to somewhere like photobucket and copy and past the link in your sigy.

Ok, ok, so is anyone else excited about the hotel release tomorrow? I know it's minor in the grand scheme of things, but it will make it feel much more official when our hotel is nailed down.

 

[stenogoddess]

Ash: I'm not as excited as I could be about the hotel, mostly because I haven't registered yet! Plus, I'm staying on Caitsmama's floor anyway so it doesn't matter. Last year they picked one of each catagory of hotel, and we stayed at Caribbean Beach for the first time. Being DVC I had always turned up my nose about it, but it was really nice. We really enjoyed our time there. It's a very pretty resort.

Hey Caits: I think that if I HAVE to do the Princess, doesn't that mean YOU HAVE to do the Coast to Coast?? I think I read that somewhere, like it was a rule or something.

 

[Ash&Wes07]

I have a quick q about registration...if SIL and I want to register as a team, does one person do the registration and it is paid for on one card, or can we each register seperately on our own accounts?

 

[ArmyWife3-4]

Anyone heard about hotels??? Just checked the Princess 1/2 site, and nothing us up yet...Waiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiting....

 

[VillianinVogue]

A PP said that they were supposed to release hotels today? I didn't even know this! When will it happen!!!

 

[Ash&Wes07]

I have a feeling it isn't happening today. It's 2:45 EST, and still no hotels listed.

I am going to try and call and see if they'll give me a date.

ETA: I called WDW-IRUN and the lady on the on the phone said they didn't have a date for releasing the hotel information, but it definitely isn't scheduled for today. Boo.

Thanks so much!

When you call, make sure you provide them with your phone and email address. I was told that they will be sending out emails as soon as the hotel information is released and if you are on the list - YOU WILL BE AMOUNGST the FIRST ONES getting it.

Needless to say, I have called more than twice and given two email address just to make sure that I get the info -

 

[treehugnmama]

have they released the hotels? we are staying at a dvc (first time as ownes) so I guess we will stay somewhere close to a participating hotel.

 

[Swmr359]

I'm registered!
I ran 5 miles for the first time today, and finally feel like I'm capable to doing 13 by March. Now I just have to wait for the hotel list to come out, and convince my mom to get back to training so I have someone to go with.

I haven't registered yet. Trying to decide what race i'm going to do. I'll put off till it looks close to closing. I'm sure that won't be long!

I did the 5k last year, what's holding me back is the full marathon in Tampa I'm doing the weekend before. I'm hoping to be in better shape than last year when i did the full and 5k.

Congraluations Maggie

You will easily be able to do 13 miles by march.

I'm going to register me and BFF as soon as I pay off my August trip. She just started her training this past week. I worked in the yard all day on Sunday and my hamstrings are still sore. I can't seem to get them to stretch enough yet. I might do yoga in a few minutes.
