Running Disney

Well my wife just signed up for the Disney Princess Half marathon in Feb...so here we come WDW.

The Princess Half Marathon

Think my wife is leaning heavily into running this year:

The third Disney's Princess Half Marathon presented by Lady Foot Locker will be held on February 27, 2011. The 13.1-mile event charts a course through Magic Kingdom and Epcot as the highlight of a full weekend of women's fitness-focused fun. Disney's Princess Half Marathon Weekend February 25-27, 2011, includes: Disney's Fit for a Princess Expo at ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex February 25-26 (no admission charge); Disney's Royal Family 5K and Disney's Royal Family Kids' Races February 26; and Disney's Princess Half Marathon February 27. To learn more about endurance events at Disney, or to sign up for any of the runDisney events, go to www.runDisney.com.

You can sign up to meet the current members of the Walt Disney World Mom's Panel at the Odyssey in Epcot on October 2, 2010 @ 2:30pm.  And yes, I'll be applying yet again this year to be a "mom".  You need to RSVP over here for a chance to get into the event.

Great notes and video on some tips for those attending this event at the Magic Kingdom over on the Disney Park's Blog.  This is the one hard ticket event that I have not attended but would really love to make it one of these days...heard great things about it and gotta see the headless horseman.
