Has anyone else ordered this?

I was going too, but $30 is steep to me. I have about 5 tech shirts already. I dont need to buy another. I tell you this, the $135 entry fee to the F&W keeps me motivated. :lol:

If any of you are DVC Members, you know the entry fee is only $115 and not $135 right? For Hubby and I that saved us $40 bucks!

YIPPEE!!!!

I bet they don't do AP discounts, huh? Oh well. Can't have it all all of the time, right? LOL! Very cool they give the DVCers a little break. That's awesome!

Bought the long sleeve and short sleeve from this year's Princess 1/2 Marathon.
With "PRINCESS IN TRAINING" on the front

And at the expo I bought the "I DID IT" t-shirt.

I was hoping they would have some merchandise for the W&D 1/2 since it's the inaugural race but with 3 months to go, it looks like it won't happen.

Are the prices at the expo stupid-expensive?

yes, but after you've been training for an event for so long, i found myself splurging on special items. My wife has an "i did it" shirt and cherishes it. It's like a trophy.

i will def be getting one of those for the half if they make one this year!

This will be the pinnacle of a huge journey ofr me from 325lbs to running a half marathon.....wooo hooo!

If anyone is going to order one of these shirts, Disney now has free shipping for Disney Parks merchandise. The code for this is PARKSFREE. It saves you 6 or 7 dollars.

I personally haven't, I am lucky enough to have enough tech shirts from races to run in without having to buy more.

I think polos were about 50, magnets about 5. Expensive in regards to real world? Yeah. Expensive in regards to Disney? Not so much. Prices seem to be fairly in line with the rest of WDW. It's not just the prices, it's the "Oh my goodness I spent the last year training for this I want to buy one of everything to remind me of how stupid it was in case I never have another lapse of sanity and never do this again" mentality that kicks in. I was only going to buy 1 polo, ended up with 2, a Mickey and a Goofy, 3 pins that I wasn't going to buy ended up in my bag, along with some other stuff. I'm not proud of my weakness. Even my wife (not a runner but we are working on it) bought some stuff.

I might just have to order one, I am going to train for the Little Rock Marathon for next March..running along with 3 others. I have not done one in years, just cycle now. I sure wish they had cycling jerseys! Good luck to all that are in the upcoming run at Disney!

Oh, pic is from the new "Honey, I shrunk the Cyclist!" :rolleyes: :lol:

So I decided to wear my shirt this past weekend when we were in Disney. It was so cool! I had no idea so many people would stop me and say they too were running the half. Many asked where to get the shirt etc.

It was a nice surprise to get to meet so many nice people from wearing a shirt!

Got the 1/2 marathon one for me and the Goofy challenge one for the DW. They are well worth it. I wear it about once a week during my long runs. The perfromance tees are great for running since it wicks the sweat away from you instead of holding and soaking your tee like cotton does.

I got them as our anniversary gifts to each other this year. Helped to justify the cost.
