Princesses from around the world will be gathering at Walt Disney World in their best running shoes to take on the challenge of runDisney’s Half Marathon Weekend in February. With races coming up quickly, runDisney has revealed medals for the races, featuring some of Disney’s most famous princesses.

This year is a special year for runDisney’s Princess Half Marathon Weekend as it is the 10th annual year for the event. Race weekend features kids races, a 5k, 10k, and Half Marathon. For Princesses who like a challenge, Disney is also offering the Disney Fairy Tale Challenge which features an additional medal for completing both the 10k and the Half Marathon.

Upon completion of the Half Marathon, runners will earn this beautiful Snow White-themed medal. Snow White also celebrates her 80th anniversary in February of 2018.

Finally, runners who signed up for runDisney’s Fairy Tale Challenge and complete both the 10k and the Half Marathon will be presented with a third medal for completing the 19.3 mile challenge. The Challenge medal features my personal favorite princess, Cinderella.
