Princess Half Marathon Weekend 2026 (Feb 26-Mar 2, 2026)

[DisneyParrothead]

I'm hoping they'll eventually do a not-Princess weekend, mostly so they can use Leia. Or theme a race entirely to female Star Wars characters like Leia, Padme, Ahsoka, Rey. The dream!

Given how popular Meg and Esmeralda are, I’d love to have a weekend that has non-Princess ladies. Include two above plus Jane Porter, and maybe Mary Poppins.

Yes, there are definitely non-princess characters that would be awesome!

So is that your official guess @nancipants

I don't know why, because it's not the font for the movie, but the "half marathon" text makes me think of Rapunzel/Tangled for some reason. I don't think it will be that, but my brain keeps going there for some reason whenever I look at it.

Me too. It feels "medieval" to me, which takes me to Tangled.

Oh very true, I just googled German Medieval alphabet and get the same vibes.

When do we expect themes? I'm sitting here drumming my fingers since MW registrations seems so long ago.

Club registration isn't until June 17, so it could be as late as the week before that. I hope they don't wait that long!

CrD registration is June 17, so themes will likely be June 3, unless runDisney does something unexpected.

YES to this!!

I am super eager to see themes for princess. As you may know, JoAnn fabrics is closing (at least all the stores in Michigan are...?) and their fabric is all clearanced out. NOT ME spending $$$$ on various types of athletic fabric, dancewear, tulle, sequins, satin, you name it...in a few different colors...because why not? I have no clue what I will be running in or what character I'll want to be but it's best to be prepared....
