HAIL SOUTHERN!!! I was doing some research on the marathon because I plan on running it in 2012 with a few other GSU girls! (None of us are really runners) I got so excited when I saw your big flag in the background! Thanks for the awesome tips!

Question: for character pictures and whatnot, do they have photopass people with them to take pictures for people?

[JUSTaGIRL214]

@xbeatlesxshirtx all characters have an entourage with them and they will take photos for you. i don't remember if it is the actual photopass people. i dont remember them having their own cameras, but they did use my camera to take photos of me. so make sure you bring one even if it is a disposable!

I want to do the half marathon someday. :)

Wish I had seen this before my 2011 race. definitely good info. One thing, those who do finish, do get there medal but it is still a bummer to get picked up. I made it but know of some who didnt.

I'm running this sunday, with my mom and aunt. I am so excited! It will be my first half marathon but it wont be my last. I loved the video, it helped alot with the questions I had. :)

[TheSouleSurvivor]

Is it true that registration for 2012 is this March? If not could u keep us all posted as to when we can register? Can't wait to see your vlog after your race!!! Great Work!

[JUSTaGIRL214]

@TheSouleSurvivor I will find out this weekend, but so far all I know is that the race will be February 24-26, 2012 :o)

[JUSTaGIRL214]

@TheSouleSurvivor registration has been open since july 4th. have you registered yet? i still need to register and pick my princess!

[TheSouleSurvivor]

Found your video full of great info.! When do u find out which resorts offer a discount for the marathon and how do you get discounted theme park tickets for that same time frame? Keep the information coming, LOVE it !!! My girls (11and 8) talked me into taking them 2012 so we all can do, and of course I talked Daddy into the Family 5K. The girls and I love your video and will be using it to stay psyched while we train until we go !!!!

Loved your video on the princess half-marathon. I'm running the disneyland half-marathon in sept and felt so inspired after watching your video. Did stopping to take pics with the characters slow your pace down by a lot? I love how the characters cheer you on & would love to get pics with them but still want to keep the 16min mile pace.

[JUSTaGIRL214]

@rintintin787 it does slow you down a but but shouldnt mess up your 16 minute miles. the characters have disney staff with them that keep the lines moving. the longest lines will be at the bathrooms and at mickey and minnie at the castle. i regret not stopping for mickey and minnie though...the only ones i missed!

[imarksgirl85]

Great info! My daughter (19 yrs old) and I will be running in 2011! These tips were very helpful. Thanks!

[Deehcg]

Thanks for posting! I look forward to running with my friends in 2011! I picked Ariel, what color will my tag be? I'm dressing as queen of hearts, unfortunately I don't have Ariel's tummy. lol.

[JUSTaGIRL214]

@Deehcg my friend picked ariel and she believes hers was green. i think princess tiana was also green, so they must have been different shades.

[carole216]

Fanny pack = ebay sale! lol!

[ad2894]

very informative

[xoBaByGrLxo3]

Hey I just registered...you said you had to change your shirt for a smaller size, what size did you originally order? You look like your about my size (i think im a little bigger) and i got a large because the site said the shirts ran small.

[JUSTaGIRL214]

@xoBaByGrLxo3 I know I ended up at a medium. I don't think they had smalls. I guess I ordered the large too since they ran small, but changed it there. You can turn in your shirt but the one I got back was white instead of the original Cinderella blue. Hope this helps!

[PrincessRunning]

Training for the 2011 Race! This is great. Thank you!

[jpet71]

Great information! I'm planning to run in 2011.

[70julee]

Good tips. I recommend buying a warm throw away layer from a Goodwill Outlet. They sell clothes for 99 cents per pound. I got extra pants, jacket and vest, all for $1.90 that I was so glad to have that morning!

[glittergirl221]

haha... "no no. we don't wear these after the race.." :)
