Did you know that registration for the Tinkerbell half marathon opened yesterday? That’s right, the 2nd annual race in Disneyland is back on again! I would SO love to run this race. If only money grew on trees and I could make it out to California for it. Looks like a BLAST!
Here are some deets:
-Nearly 20k people are anticipated to sign up!
-you can register at runDisney.com
-This fun weekend is slated for January 18-20, 2013
-The half marathon runs through Disneyland Park, Disney California Adventure Park – including the new Cars Land – and the streets of Anaheim. The half marathon course will include music, entertainment and Disney characters at various junctures as well as runners in colorful Tinker Bell costumes. Runners who finish the half marathon will receive a Tinker Bell medal with its own set of wings.
-The race weekend, hosted by Disneyland Resort and the City of Anaheim, features a variety of events, including The Never Land Family Fun 5K and the runDisney Kids’ races on Saturday (Jan. 19), and the Tinker Bell Half Marathon on Sunday (Jan. 20). There will also be a health and fitness expo Friday and Saturday (Jan. 18-19) showcasing the latest running merchandise, as well as guest speakers – all geared toward women.
I am all about bling and I LOVE this metal! Hopefully I will get one someday! What are you waiting for? Sign up now! Prices increase mid July!
Speaking of price increase, the marathon weekend price increase for those races June June 19th, and Goody is already 72% full, and the marathon is 53% full. (Interested in more info on the full, check out my post revealing the new course for the special 20th anniversary run!)
More exciting news, registration for Disney’s Princess half marathon opens JULY 10th!!!
Guess what? I will be hosting a discounted room block for the Princess half race, just like I am for marathon weekend (I still have plenty of rooms available for the marathon weekend room block! contact me for more info at heather@travelwiththemagic.com, great rates!!!)

Steph @fitmomtraining says
I would love, love, love, LOVE to run the Disney Princess half. I’ve never been to Disney ever (don’t think less of me!) and this would be the most amazing way to go!
Kelly @ Cupcake Kelly's says
Let me know where the money tree is when you find it ;)! I want to do all the Disney races at least once.
Mindy Bobe says
Sending you an email right now about Princess Half rates! 😉
Missie says
Man, this race is what keeps me wanting to run! I want to get up to a half marathon, maybe not by this race but the next one!
Ami G says
I really want a Coast to Coast medal!
Heather says
I get mine in september!
Kierston says
Ohhhhh! I would LOVE to do this! I will add it to my Fitness Bucket List! Love the dress 🙂
Ashley says
My Mom and I ran it this year! and I am 99.9% sure we are running again next year. We might even let the boys run with us too! 😉
Heather says
fun!!!
PavementRunner says
We need some FitFluential sponsorship power here: I can run as Peter Pan and you can run as Tinker Bell!
Lisa @ RunWiki says
Can I be Tiger Lilly?
PavementRunner says
I’m slowly thinking of an idea… it involves videos, pleads to FitFluentil powers that be and acting like a fool to gain viral sponsorhip momentum.
Heather says
Sounds like a plan! Even I’d it’s not FitFluential there has to be someone to send us!
Heather says
absolutely!
Anne says
I’d LOVE to run the Princess Half for my first Half Marathon.
Too bad money doesn’t grow on trees! 🙁
But when I can afford it, I totally plan on going Coast-to-Coast and doing Tinkerbell & Princess!
Heather says
I know right? if I find a money tree I will let you know.
Emily says
This was such a fantastic race! I wish I could run it again next year but right now it isn’t looking possible. Princess is definitely my fave and I will be running that again next year!! 🙂
Molly Ritterbeck says
This is my ultimate half for next year….I will do it!
Charissa says
Love it so much and I’m super jealous! I want to run the Disney half so much! 🙂
Carly says
Oh I’d love to run Disney – but I don’t think I could make it work anytime soon 🙁
Lisa @ RunWiki says
I really want to do this race! I am moving to California next week, so I would even be on the right coast. I will have to be saving my penny’s for this one. We are moving to the land of expensive houses so my hubs has put a stop to high priced races for now..I think a FitFluential team is a must! PS. You are the most gorgeous Belle EVER!
Heather says
aw thanks! Belle is my favorite! how cool you are moving to CA!
crystal says
I have not signed up yet, but I am hoping to Legacy the Tink race. My favorite RunDisney race is the Mickey Marathon, though…wish I could go for the 20th!
Anne says
I am dying to do a Disney race! I blogged about it today, in fact.
Ali says
What shoes are you wearing in your Belle picture? they’re super cute!
Heather says
they are newtons!
