Probably the best part about runDisney race weekends is all of the exclusive merchandise available at the Health & Fitness Expo. There’s nothing like having some great commemorative items to take home with you to remember your big accomplishment!
Princess Half Marathon Weekend is right around the corner and there are some great new items you’ll be able to pick up. Let’s check them out!
Frozen has taken over as the main theme of the weekend and you can find snowflakes and characters on many of the items. There is also the addition of a pink runDisney Magic Band to go with the blue design that was introduced over Marathon weekend.
This is the 2nd year for the Glass Slipper Challenge and they have knocked it out of the park with these turquoise and black designs. I just LOVE that wine glass!
Ahhh BondiBands…my running must have! Look at all of designs you’ll have to choose from!
Another new addition to the race merchandise are these fun phone cases…looks like they can be customized too!
And of course, no Princess Weekend would be complete without the ultimate accessory, a Disney Dooney & Bourke purse! These new Princess designs are whimsical and fun…perfect for this royal event.
Earlier today, New Balance released NEW design in their runDisney collection that will be release over Princess Half Marathon weekend. Over Marathon Weekend the new Steamboat Willie inspired 990v3 shoes and now they are introducing 860v5’s in similar designs and capturing the spirit of the Sorcerer Mickey and Pink Polka Dot Minnie designs from the 2014 collection.
The shoes will only be available at Health and Fitness Expos during the runDisney event weekend. To minimize waiting in line for shoes, New Balance has created a virtual queue to let you know when it’s your turn to be fitted and make your purchase. Starting on Thursday, February 19, starting at 6 a.m. runners can sign up at NBvirtualqueue.com using their bib number. Non-runners can sign up daily, pending inventory.
