Princesses! You’re just a few short days away from the 2018 Disney Princess Half Marathon Weekend – Presented by Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals! I’m sad to say I won’t be joining you this year, but can’t wait to follow along. Some of you might have already made the journey to Florida, but in case you’re still packing, check out my race packing list below to make sure you didn’t forget anything!

NOTE: runDisney just issued a Weather Advisory for this weekend- the forecast is looking warmer and more humid than usual. Check the weather until the very last minute and pack for all kinds of weather just in case!
