    I did the 5k with my 21 year old sister and my 59 year old mom! Neither had ever done a 5k race and both did awesome! I’d highly recommend the race and the weekend events.

    The Princess Half Marathon rocked. I’ve been doing the Disney Marathon and Goofy for 10 years & have been dragging my kids for every single one. This year my daughter turned 14 a couple of weeks before the Princess Half & was able to legally participate (I think she was the youngest runner). She finished in 2:30 (20 mins ahead of her expected time). The race atmosphere, synergy and organization was amazing. Kudos to the race staff and of course my daugther Kyria #1905 for her performance.
