A record field of runners is expected for the third Disney’s Princess Half Marathon presented by Lady Foot Locker on Feb. 27, 2011. The 13.1-mile event charts a course through Magic Kingdom and Epcot as the signature moment of a full weekend of women’s fitness-focused fun.
Disney’s Princess Half Marathon Weekend Feb. 25-27, 2011, includes:
- Disney’s Fit for a Princess Expo at ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex Feb. 25-26 (no admission charge)
- Disney’s Royal Family 5K and Disney’s Royal Family Kids’ Races Feb. 26
- Disney’s Princess Half Marathon Feb. 27
More than 13,000 half marathoners were involved in 2010 when 33-year-old Gina Aalgaard Kelly, a housewife, mother of three and college professor from Lisbon, N.D., crossed the finish line in 1:23:58 to win by 23 seconds. The field was a record while Aalgaard Kelly’s time was more than five-and-a-half minutes off the record time (1:18:18) set by Olympian Liza Hunter-Galvan in 2009.
