    Request your FREE personalized sign for the 2017 Super Heroes Half Marathon



    A couple of years ago I read an article Runner's World talking about the Boston Marathon, and the personalized signs the women of Wellesley College make for anyone who asks for one. I loved the idea, and decided to make a similar offer for the 2013 Disneyland Half Marathon. The signs were a huge hit, and we've made signs for the 2014, 2016 and 2017 events.

    We've only offered the signs at the Disneyland half before now, because it was the only race where we had a place to display them all. When I saw the new course for the Super Heroes Half, I realized we could use the same location for our cheer station, which means we can do signs again!

    As such, we are now accepting sign requests for the 2017 Super Heroes Half Marathon event. If you would like your very own personalized race sign, please reply to this thread with your name, hometown, favorite (clean) inspirational phrase, whatever.

    We'll do our best to make something colorful and clever for you, and you can look forward to seeing your sign at the Team MousePlanet Cheer Station, between mile 6 and 7, on the right side of the road. It's a long grassy strip, with loads of room for signs.

    As always, there's no charge - just tell us what you want your sign to say!
    If you're the smartest person in the room, you're in the wrong room.

    -I'm running as Spider-Gwen, so any Spider-Gwen or Spider-Ham/Peter Porker jokes are welcome. Actually you should just do all runners a favor and make every sign a Spider-Ham joke. He's a spider that was bitten by a radioactive pig. He's real and he's amazing.

    Thank you for putting this together. I’ve run past the signs at the DLH this and and last year and loved them!

    I’d love a sign!

    Thanks again for putting this together!

    Sign for half

    First of all I wanted to say you guys are awesome for doing this. It's great for the people that might not have that motivational support out there for them when they really need it. I know seeing your signs really gives me that extra push I need during the race. My brother and I will be out there again and we would love a sign to cheer us on.

    Thank you guys again for being this awesome!!!

    Hey! Thank you for doing this. I'm surprising my friends with this sign and hope they get to see it! One of my friends has had a particularly hard time training for this race and isn't feeling as confident going into it. I'm hoping he will see it and it will give him that added push to finish strong!

    On a scale of 1-10, you're a 13.1!!"

    Thank you again!!

    Thank you so much. Always look for you guys on course. Anything on the sign is good.

    Hi! I'm new here and this is my first DL race, so thank you for doing this. I'm Rachel from Brookfield, CT and would love anything positive Thank you.

    I would love if you made a sign for me and my running buddy Ken. We've been doing each of these races since 2013 together and will be heading to Paris next year, since there won't be any in California. So, something like, "Cancelling the races in California won't stop us running. Watch us fly by in Paris 2018. Crystal and Ken...running buddies no matter what!" Thanks SO much for your support!

    Hi, I love that you are doing this! I'm Andrea from BC, Canada. This is my first race in DL but my 10th 1/2. This one is special though as I'm celebrating my 40th birthday this trip. Would love a sign that says, Dream it, wish it, do it. Thanks

    Thank you!!

    I'd love a sign for my husband - Ryan Sullivan from Walnut Creek. I don't have a phrase in mind but he goes by Sulli and we love monsters Inc. and university

    I'd love to see a sign thanking Karen Chu of San Francisco for all her running costumes over the years!! We will all miss the Disneyland events so much and I know many will miss seeing what ingenious costume Karen would run in next!! She hasn't updated her site in awhile but I know she will be recognized! (http://www.myrunningcostumes.com/)

    Fingers crossed the Dland races will come back and you'll get your Legacy status.
