The course is the same as the WDW 1/2 in Jan. Here is a copy of the map from my website

The courses were a bit different this year between the two. The January Half and Princess Half starts were different and the Princess had you starting and finishing using the three or so overpasses.

These are my Garmin route Maps that came from my 405.

I thought I heard a rumor that the 2010 Princess course was going to be the one that starts at the raceway. I don't remember where I read it. Has Disney released the official course map yet?

Suzanne: Not sure as that was the rumored course for the first Princess and everyone who was signing up for it was in an uproar because it didn't have you going through the castle. So, not sure. Maybe the new "rumored" fall Half next year wil be starting near the racetrack at MK?? who knows?

There was a map of the course in our goody bags from the DL half-- it looked like plans are for the same course as last year.

Thanks all, I was hoping for a different course than the January 1/2. I really want the medal but don't want to do the same course 2 months later. I did the 5K this year and cheered for the 1/2. Looks like I have some time to make up my mind as its not even at 50% yet.
