Disney Princess 1/2 Prices Released!!

Are you a Disney Princess? Is your glass slipper a running sneaker!?
Well lace up and sign up on Tuesday June 11 for the Disney Princess 1/2 Marathon!

The Disney Princess 1/2 Marathon was my first 1/2 marathon ever! It was so incredible and so worth every penny! What made it extra special was it was the 5th Anniversary, as well as a great experience to make connections with so many wonderful people!!

The 2014 Princess 1/2 Marathon has been added to, with a 10k! And if you really want to go the distance you can sign up for the "Glass Slipper Challenge." What is the "Glass Slipper Challenge" you ask???
If you think that a half marathon is just a walk in the park, put your endurance to the test and compete in the all-new Glass Slipper Challenge! A 19.3-mile adventure held over two days, participants will run the Disney Enchanted 10K on Saturday, followed by the Disney Princess Half Marathon on Sunday. If you finish both races within the pacing requirements, you will be awarded the all-new Glass Slipper Challenge medal in addition to your Half Marathon and 10K finisher medals. (rundisney.com)

Below you will find all the pricing information for the 2014 Princess 1/2 Marathon (found on the Run Disney website)!
For those of you signing up, you are going to love it and going to have so much fun! For those of you thinking about it, just do it! If money is tight, go with a bunch of friends to help share the cost, do fundraising and book through an independent Disney Vacation planner!

Mickey and Minnie's Royal Family 5k

Again, I apologize for taking so long to update, and taking so long in between the first update from the Princess 1/2 Marathon weekend.

ANYWAYS! As you can tell by the title, this entry is about the Royal Family 5k from Saturday, February 23rd! It was a blast!
The day started by waking at 4am to get ready and on the bus for Epcot at 5am-515am. Nicole's costume for the 5k was more in depth than mine. My choice was more simple and last minute, compared to mine for the 1/2...but you'll hear more about that another post! So Nicole was Mrs. INcredible, and I dressed as a simple Minnie Mouse!

This was my first time wearing a running skirt as well, which was cute, but in the end not the best choice. Those shorts do know how to ride up, I dont know if anyone has any tips on keeping them down? I had rubbed some lanacane on my thighs which I think helped, but not for very long.

But I still looked cute!

Here is Nicole and I wwaiting in the crowd. Everyone is jamming out to music and dancing. We even did "Thriller" at one point, the DJ was awesome and taught everyone four basic moves they needed to know for the dance and it was a hit!!

Below are more pictures throughout the rest of the race. What made character stops awesome was that it made running continously easier! They stops made nice little breathing breaks. Nicole was nice enough to stay slow and stick with me the whole race, which made it so much more enjoyable and fun!

After the end of the race, we stayed around for pictures with Mickey and Minnie as well as some snacks! Then we headed back to our hotel for a shower and then back to the expo for some fun photos as well as to listen to some speakers for topics about health and racing and tips about the course, which was pretty helpful!

As you can see, we were up to no good at the expo! hehe
