    I didn't get the whole thing because I am not entered in that race. You can see the edge of it in this photo.

    As of January 27th, the Princess Breakfast is officially sold out. There is still room if you would like to join the royal gang for pasta in the park or on at the Disney Royal Family 5k.

    Well, it's the morning after registration opened for the 2014 Disneyland Half Marathon Weekend and it's already over. Although the tracker on the runDisney Disneyland Half website still shows the same availability for the half marathon and 5k as they did last evening however they both show as 'FULL' when registration is attempted via Active. com. As for the Pasta Party, it's not a 'stand-alone' option on Active.com at this time so we'll have to wait for the official tracker to update that capacity.

    So, in less than 24 hours (not counting pre-sales), every single running event for the 2014 Disneyland Half Marathon Weekend sold out. Wow...

    The Disneyland Pasta Party just moved to 94% capacity and the ChEAR Squad just moved to the board at 52%.

    If you're thinking about pasta in the park, I wouldn't wait too much longer to register.

    Looks like we also had movement on the remaining Princess Half Marathon Weekend events as well. If you are considering taking on the Royal Family 5k (and it's a pretty cute Cinderella / Fairy Godmother rubber medal) or if your kids want to run the kids races (Friday spots only), I wouldn't wait too much longer to sign up. Once we hit 90% capacity, events usually sell out very soon thereafter.

    Princess Half Marathon Weekend

    •Royal Family 5K - 90% Full

    •runDisney Kids Races - 90% Full
    — Friday - 90% Full
    — Saturday - SOLD OUT

    •Pasta in the Park Party - 70% Full


    And mark your calendars. Registration for the 2014 Tower of Terror 10 Miler and Happy Haunted 5k Trail Run opens February 11th at 12:00 p.m. EST/ 9:00 a.m. PST.

    Ok fair Princesses and Princes, your carriage to WDW and the Princess Half marathon weekend is about to turn into a pumpkin. If you are still on the fence for the Royal Family 5k, runDisney kids races, or the pasta party (which took a HUGE jump in capacity), NOW would be a good time to get your registration completed. We are just about at midnight and the clock is ticking.

    Princess Half Marathon Weekend


    •Royal Family 5K - 98% Full

    •runDisney Kids Races - 97% Full
    — Friday - 94% Full
    — Saturday - SOLD OUT

    •Pasta in the Park Party - 94% Full
    -- Friday - 90%
    -- Saturday - 96%

    We're getting close to the end of the Princess Half Marathon weekend events just in time for the Tower of Terror 10-Miler Weekend to open. At this point, if you want that cool Cinderella Royal Family 5k t-shirt, jump now or forever hope one comes up (at a decent price) on eBay!

    For some reason I'm unable to update the main capacity tracker but thought I would let everyone know that runDisney has officially 'sold out' all the remaining Princess Half Marathon weekend events except for the Pasta Party in the Park (currently at 98%). The sellout includes the 5k, kids races, and the race retreats.

    The only other runDisney update this week is the addition of the 2014 Wine & Dine dates (November 8th and 9th). No sign yet of registration cost but given it's the 5 year anniversary, I would expect to see a nice little jump in $$$ when that information is released.

    Open registration for W&D begins Tuesday March 4th @ 9:00 a.m. PST / 12:00 p.m. EST. AP / DVC early registration opens Wednesday February 26th @ 9:00 a.m. PST / 12:00 p.m. EST.

    Would you like me to see if I can update it for you while you figure out why you can't?

    Regarding the Wine & Dine AP registration date... anyone encountered any issues validating their status as a Premier AP holder? Or is there such a validation step?

    Thank you - that would be wonderful. I've pinged Tony with the issue but no response yet. At this point, all I see is a gray box after clicking edit as opposed to the content.

    As for AP, you just click the check box that asks if you're an AP. That's it. Hence the reason everything went nuts when Disney AP posted the links on their Facebook page and they went viral. At that point, everyone and their dog became an AP.

    The issue with post editing has been fixed. I was having the same problem earlier.

    Unfortunately still unable to update the main posting but big news today - the 2014 Tower of Terror 10-Miler has reached 50% capacity in just six days! Last year it took almost a month before the race was over 50% and it took just over a month in the inaugural year. It appears there might be another faster-than-normal runDisney race sell out coming!

    Couple of capacity updates for you today.

    Looks like the the Princess Pasta Party in the Park is officially sold out.

    But the BIG news of the day is over at Expedition Everest. Expedition Everest Family Edition is now at 96% capacity (big jump from 80%). Kids races are at 65%. EE Challenge is at 58%. I would be surprised if EE Family lasts past the Princess weekend so don't delay if you are thinking about signing up!

    Hmmm...I guess I need to decide sooner rather than later if I'm really going to do this. I was thinking I'd have at least til July when were moved out east to decide. I'll keep watching the updates here

    It may just be an initial spike but good to keep tabs on it. I'll ping you as well if it takes another big jump. Will be interesting to see if runDisney has open registration at the Princess expo this week.

    Quick update. Registration for the 2014 Tower of Terror 10-Miler Weekend is available at the Princess expo but that is it. No pre-reg for Wine & Dine.

    So the early registration for AP/DVC for Wine & Dine is the earliest that's available? Interesting.

    Yup. I think after the debacle of the Dumbo Double Dare selling out at the expo (and then during AP/DVC/Visa) prior to general opening runDisney has decided to limit pre-reg to a single early open.
