More than 13,000 princesses (including 400 princes) took to the streets of Walt Disney World Resort on Sunday morning all in the name of Disney’s Princess Half Marathon. The 13.1-mile race started in true Disney fashion with fireworks lighting up the sky and Fairy Godmother wishing all well on their journey. Many runners came dressed in their princess best. Here are some of our favorite photos from the event.

@Jennifer,
Could you please post details about the race? ex:Age min. and max., how to enter. or if there is a certain site you went to, please let me know. I am thinking about running in it next year(: Another question: how long are you running?
I have been inspired to run the Half in January 2011! I have never run before. Yikes!! The Disney Magic is what draws me to embark on this event!
Watched my older daughter run, she is such an inspiration!! We fly down for each marathon our 2 daughters run, such a good excuse to come to Disney. Congratulations to all the runners and we look forward to the Expedition run in June!!
I RAN IT!!!!!! it was the best experience in my life!!! will do it again!
My sister ran in the Princess Half Marathon and her daughter ran in the 5k at Epcot….I am so proud of both of them. They have inspired me to run in the Half Marathon in 2011 with them!! Maybe I will see you there Laurie from IA!!
Looks like fun! I want to do that someday!
Goal #1 Run Princess Half Marathon 2011

We are planning our trip to Disney this year with the family. Looking forward to all the changes.
