Princess Weekend 2023 (Feb 23-26, 2023)

[nancipants]

Thank you, everyone, for the warm welcome! I will definitely try to meet up before the 10k. Friends will be in town so I’m not sure about HH, but I’ll invite them along!

Please send all the good vibes - both DDs tested positive for COVID today for the first time. DH and I had Covid last year, so hoping we stay negative. I’ve had such a good training cycle, I’d be bummed to get COVID now!

But - I guess one less worry for our February trip.

I hope you stay negative! I just got covid for 1st time despite caution 01/17 and am on day 18 of being positive with symptoms so no running during this time sadly. Horrible time to get covid for me- I've made my peace that I might get swept at the half because taking care of my body esp with covid causing cardiovascular issues is most important. I hope you stay healthy!

I’m so sorry!! Great plan to listen to your body and take it slow.

~17 days 12 hours to expo and still no course maps or event guide.
I'm not stalking, really I'm not....

I tried to follow the instructions on the email/post about the VQ. Just to test it out.

I know it says you have to be within 45 mile radius of WDW, but I just figured I would give it a try and see how it goes. Strangely enough, I see Epcot as an option. But, not WWOS.

I don't want to make assumptions and figure that WWOS will eventually show up once I get on property or the day of. And then find out that it isn't the case, and end up scrambling last minute.

Is anyone else able to see WWOS?

They most likely haven’t loaded it into the system since the event is still a few weeks out

WWOS will appear in the days before the Expo.

And no, it doesn't work if you aren't close enough. I've tried

Thought it odd that we got "Your Club runDisney Perks for Disney Princess Half Marathon Weekend" emails when none of us are Club runDisney

They’re trying to entice you into signing up

Mostly, I was chuckling at the fact that they didn’t proofread well enough and talked about unlocking extra magic during Marathon Weekend

 

[princesspirateandrunner]

When do you suppose they’ll notice that they sent the email to everyone? Gee, rD, get it right!

Same. And I was annoyed it wasn’t something about the event guide.

Question on the virtual queue. Do you have to be with in some distance to DisneyWorld to get into the queue? The description does not, from what I see?

never mind. - in the screenshot it says 45 miles

Still not stalking for the event guide...

Checked my emails from last year, and in 2022, RunDisney sent an email with a link to the event guide on Thursday February 10, two weeks before the expo. Fingers crossed that the event guide comes out tomorrow, then.

This is becoming absurd.

For some reason I thought it was sooner than that. Crossing fingers!
