I'm Going to Disney World!

That's right...registration opened yesterday for the 2013 Disney Princess Half Marathon! 

Source - runDisney Facebook page
 I registered as soon as I saw that it was open.  Had a little anxiety as this is a big deal with it being my first half marathon, but I know it will all be worth it in the end.


For my bib, I chose Aurora from Sleeping Beauty and plan to dress up as her - a brunette version of her anyway (not sure I can run 13.1 miles in a wig nor am I dying my hair blonde!). 

I'm already looking into booking our hotel as I want to get as much done as soon as possible so I don't have to worry about my hotel of choice - Port Orleans - French Quarter - filling up.  J will be coming to cheer me on and we hope to catch an Atlanta Braves spring training game while we're down.

I have two amazing friends who are running with me, and I can't wait!

Let the countdown begin!


Until next time,

Jen

    I did my first full at Disney last year. They are so organized and great races to run.
    I'd love to do the princess sounds so fun. Where do we get race sponsors? :)
