The 2011 Princess Half Marathon Weekend Recap

This past weekend, 22,000 runners gathered in Orlando for the Princess Half Marathon weekend festivities.  Between the half marathon and the 5k, the children’s races, and the health and fitness expo, families from all over the world came to participate in second of four runDisney endurance weekends in 2011.

Of the 17,000 participants in the half marathon, the winner finished in1:22:50.  33-year old Jennifer Hanley-Pinto, of Jacksonville, FL, finished a mere 24 seconds in front the 2nd place finisher, Caitlin Latimer of Lexington, KY.

Celebrating women’s empowerment, health and active lifestyles, the Princess Weekend is one of the nation’s largest endurance events focused on women.  While men are welcome to be part of teams, they are not considered the champions of these races.


As a female endurance runner, I personally find these women insane inspiring and encouraging for my own personal running goals (none of which currently include trying to run 13.1 miles in under 2 hours).

To all of the participants in the 2011 runDisney Princess Half Marathon Weekend events, congratulations!  Whether 5k or Half Marathon, Disney is opening up endurance events to the masses and to those who, elsewhere, might have never considered racing.

For more information on races at Walt Disney World or Disneyland, head to runDisney‘s official website for racing tips, training schedules, and a list of future events.  And, I’ll be here to help motivate and share my own personal experiences as well!
