they had "found" a limited quantity of the athleisure line and that they'd have it out on racks.

of course they did.

She posted again not long ago and said they had "found" a limited quantity of the athleisure line and that they'd have it out on racks. Joggers were specifically mentioned.

Oooh, thanks!

Me:
5k 518xx
Challenge 360xx

Wife:
5k 515xx
Challenge 360xx

We both put in 8-10 for 5k and 10k, 2:46-3:00 for the Half.

We both got corral B for the 5k and F for the challenge.

Boo, I have the same bib range for the challenge and was hoping it would put me in E. Oh well.

Has RD stopped posting its own merchandise previews in place of "influencers"? Not that I ever buy anything, but I do at least look. And since I don't follow any randos influencers, I would not have a clue where to look. Or have they not done previews before?

No, they just do them before race week. The Princess merch preview was posted three weeks ago:

And they don't always do the influencer previews. They did them for W&D but then not at MW or DL. I was surprised to see them pop up again for this weekend.

I don't like the focus on influencers, but it is nice to see ALL the things offered rather than just the few they choose to show on their own previews.

For anybody who’s curious, here’s the difference in the blue shirts. It’s subtle.

I am more confused about the 90's-like basket prop in the video, what the heck does that have to do with Sleeping Beauty???

I love that sort of attention to detail even if it looks 90s. In the film, the 3 Good Fairies give Briar Rose a basket and send her out to pick some berries in the forest so they can make her cake and dress while she's out since it's her 16th birthday. After she returns to the cottage, she learns that she's not actually a peasant and is instead the Princess Aurora.

And yes, I'm a huge Disney nerd and Sleeping Beauty is my favorite animated film.

omg you are totally right! I think the squareness of the basket was throwing me off, lol!

 

[Herding_Cats]

I'm seeing a pic on social media of there being a Dopey pandora charm, and some sort of mini murano glass bead as well. Can anyone confirm this, and tell me what color the glass bead is?

ETA: *at* the expo


Another edit: I get it that Dopey goes with Snow White and she's one of the princesses. But why in the actual **** would they not have Dopey at MW. Oof Disney. Big oof.

My friend says that the side panels on the "I Did It" half marathon shirts are upside down.

They really can not move to Brooks fast enough!

Pandora sponsors Princess weekend, so I can almost see the logic. That, or they weren't ready/shipped in time, so somebody went "hey -- this sorta works!" and they ran with it. Knowing rD, I'm betting on the latter.

Sometimes when they stylize things, the stylization is such a radical departure from the film that I wonder what it's supposed to be as well. I didn't even think basket until you mentioned it.

It's been a long time since I posted on here, but headed down tomorrow and looking forward to it! Here's hoping they have a coffee mug, hat and/or hoodie left by tomorrow evening, but not holding my breath.

I just saw the ebay price for the mug. Yikes! I hope you get one.

I'm chained to my desk, so I'm doing the half "virtually" and checking ebay for merchandise that I might want. Some of the prices are absurd, but I'm sticking to sanity.

 

[nancipants]

I saw the Evil Queen was at the expo, she BETTER be there tomorrow, too!

Have a great race tomorrow!

So the spirit jersey looks soo much like the one from 2023.. My sister always buys it but just couldn't do it... especially for $80.

I hope they mix it up a bit more next year...

The Hag is one of the prerace characters

I was there late last night and there were still plenty of those items left.
