Congratulations to anyone out there who completed the Princess Half Marathon at Disney World this past weekend! It looked like this year was just as fantastic as all the rest, and even a bit warmer than one or two ;) And goodness, be happy that you are not running today since Florida has decided to do a complete 180 and be hot and muggy. Yuck.

Have you got the running bug and thinking of running a Disney Race? Disney races are kind of know for being super fun, super lavish, super expensive, and getting a super awesome finisher's medallion at the end- and all you need is a 16 minute/mile pace or faster!

Now that I have a team of friends and family running the Wine and Dine with me, I have been looking up massive tips, running advice, and articles on what to expect from my first long Disney run. Turns out, there are entire blogs dedicated to running Disney races. I love it! My current favorite is A Healthy Dose of Pixie Dust, hands down. If you are planning on running a Disney race in the near future, or you just want to see what you should expect should you make the leap, this is a great site to check out. A Few of my favorite articles are listed below.

Disney Running 101 that just has links to lots of other Disney running articles

From the above article, a few of my favorites include The Day Before the Big Race, The Week Leading Up to The Race, and The Packing List. Both were so helpful on what to expect!

The Wine and Dine Race Recap is pretty high on my favorites list as well, go figure ;)

The Expo has some wonderful info for anyone wondering if it is worth checking out.

Aaahh, it is 8 months away and I simply cannot wait!! What race training have you used in the past? I have heard great things about Jeff Galloway and am considering using his run walk training for my first race.
