Gearing up for a rundisney race ? If so, these are some of the best options for disney running outfits for training or race day!

disney running outfits : these are some of the best options for run disney costumes

I'm in the midst of training for my first of what will probably be many rundisney events or races. While I've been running for years, I'm shocked that as a massive disney fan (disneyland is pretty much our second home)…..I've never committed to a race. Probably because, they've been only available at walt disney world for the last few years and we're on the west coast.

But, great news….. run disney costumes will soon be needed on both coasts. At the D23 Expo this last year , it was announced that disney races are returning to disneyland so we'll have official run disney race options in both US disney parks soon.

For now, I have two friends and our group text to thank. Months ago, I woke up to an already started conversation (they both live in east coast and central time zones)……they had decided to sign up for the 2023 disney princess half marathon weekend (the 10k race to be exact). And they decided to sign me up. Since the race slots filled up VERY quickly, I'm glad they made the decision for me….because months later…..we're almost to race day and I'm so excited. While I've run a ton of races, this will be my first race on disney property and I know it's going to be really special.

I can't wait to cross the finish line and to celebrate with some attractions, some epic disney and epcot food and some park time (we're already debating whether we should do a day at animal kingdom or magic kingdom. Epcot is a given since the race is there but we can't spend a weekend at our favorite theme parks without visiting some of the other parts).

Disney Running Outfits: What to Wear and What You Need

Like any race outfit or running costume , disney running outfits need to be functional as well as fun. Planning a costume idea around your favorite disney character is part of the fun of a disney race…..but you also want to be sure that you are comfortable for the duration of your run.

A few things to keep in mind when planning for which disney running outfits you'll wear during race weekend:

  • NOTHING NEW: like any race outfit, you'll want to test drive everything from your running socks to your shoes to your running skirt to your sports bra. You want to be sure everything fits, supports, doesn't rub or chafe, and that the fabric feels good. I'd try your race day outfit during a longer run (at least a 4 or 5 mile run for a good test) and also during a speed test to be sure it stands up to both.
  • What will the weather be? The time of year and weather will make a HUGE difference, especially if you are coming from a climate that is different that the one at walt disney world. For me? I rarely layer or run in a jacket (even in the low 50 degree weather I warm up quickly and can run in a tee shirt or tank top).
  • What accessories will you need? Do you want to have your phone with you? A running belt may be a good idea. You won't need headphones, you'll want to be able to chat with your fellow runners and to enjoy the music on the race course.

Disney Running Outfits : Where to Find the Best Options

disney running outfits : where to find the best options

Now, let's get to the fun part. The best places to find disney running outfits (clearly I've been doing some research here). There are some really fun options for a great group costume or easy costume pieces that can compliment your regular running gear.

Crowned Athletics

This Cinderella inspired outfit? Is from Crowned Athletics. Now, spoiler, it's not what I'm planning to wear on race day. But I am wearing ANOTHER outfit from them. I've been testing out their pieces on practice runs and I'm VERY impressed. The running skirts have great built in shorts that don't ride up and an adjustable waistband. The sports bras are super supportive and I love the different styles of tops. Fair warning: they release styles in limited collection drops, so if you see something you want….SNAG it. Items sell out quickly!

You can CLICK HERE or use code CARLYANDERSON to get 10% off anything from Crowned Athletics

Etsy Shops and Custom Options

Etsy shops and sellers who make custom disney running outfits are a fun option if you want something truly unique. From running skirts to custom sports bras, you can find anything and everything disney and run related. The great thing about going this route when planning your disney running outfits is that you can totally tailor to WHATEVER character you want. And if you don't see what you like, make a custom request!

A few of my personal favorites:

Solid Colors For Disney Bounding

Another great option for disney running outfits is to find PERFECT solid colors and pieces for disney bounding. You can find the perfect red for snow white or the ideal blue for jasmine's outfit and…..then you just need fun accessories. For me? I love Athleta for solid running pieces as well as Girlfriend Collective or Nike.

A few of my personal favorites:

Disney Running Outfits:

Whether you are gearing up for your first or your next run disney race I hope that this helped you to find some fun outfits for rundisney events and runs. I can't WAIT to cross the finish line and to accessorize my running outfit with a medal. I hope you get to do that too!

🚨 3 MISTAKES I MADE AT MY FIRST RUN DISNEY RACE 🚨 3 MISTAKES I MADE AT MY FIRST RUN DISNEY RACE 🚨⠀⠀🛑 Learn from my mistakes, 3 things you should NOT do if you’re running Disney races this year (trust me):⠀⠀1️⃣ Passing Go and Heading STRAIGHT to the parks: I realllllyyyyy wanted medal pictures.  In my running outfit.  So, instead of taking the buses straight from the finish line back to the hotel……we went to the Magic Kingdom.  Took photos.  Went to lunch.  And felt…..terrible by about 1 pm.  So take it from me, finish the race.  Go to the hotel.  Shower. Take a nap.  THEN go to the parks. ⠀2️⃣ Breakfast: ok, mistake number 2.  WHAT WE ATE.  We booked a very cute, very on theme lunch.  It was also very rich and creamy food.  And…..was NOT IT after a race.  Some of us may have gotten sick.  It might have been the food.  Or the lack of sleep.  But, breakfast food (waffles / eggs) would have been a MUCH better choice.  Now bonus points if you can guess where we ate.  Love it, but….not for the first meal after the race.⠀3️⃣ Park Tickets: I spent WAY too much.  I didn’t buy my park tickets in advance and paid full price.  On a race weekend, you’ll probably want tickets for race day and the day after if not two days after.  So….buy them NOW.  While you can get a deal. ⠀⠀🎟️ Which leads to……when I say buy those park tickets now, I mean it. Big News! Undercover Tourist is offering their best ticket deal at BOTH Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort…for a VERY limited time, get Adult Theme Park Tickets at Child Prices.  So whichever race you are running (or races in my case)……snag tickets NOW.  I’m grabbing mine for Wine and Dine and Princess weekend……..⠀🎟️ want a link to the deal? Comment TICKETS PLEASE and I’ll send it your way! ⠀👟 Are you running a Disney Race this year? Which one? ⠀⠀🥇 And if you’re an experienced Run Disney person….what tips do YOU have for first timers?⠀⠀@themeparkfrog @disneyland #FrogHopDLR #rundisney

Two good witches and one black cat…….kick off Two good witches and one black cat…….kick off another year of family halloween costumes.The thing is, I tried to talk Lydia out of these costumes.  It was a cooler day on Saturday and I kept telling her we could just wear jeans and the hats.  Until, I realized…….we may not have that many Halloween seasons left of cute family costumes.  So pink witches we were…..for the kickoff of Legoland’s Brick or Treat. We love Brick or Treat (this is our 3rd year doing it). It’s got some new activities this year, and I L-O-V-E that it’s included in your regular @legolandcalifornia ticket (bonus it ALSO will be included in Kids Free October here in SD).Our favs this year:- the wacky witch trail near the water park entrance- the zombie cheerleaders- halloween themed apple fries- the monster security checkpoint- Jam Out with the Rockers (this meet and greet is HYSTERICAL, scroll for the footage)Brick or Treat takes place on Saturdays in September and then Saturdays and SOME Sundays in October (dates are on the Legoland website).Welp, this makes it official.  Summer has come to an end. Bring on the Halloween fun!#sponsored #LEGOLANDcalifornia
