Preview the 2024 Marathon Weekend 2024 Merch!

So runDisney didn’t make a big splashy blog-post reveal of the marathon weekend merch, but they did trickle a few images to us on Instagram. For sure what they’re sharing is just a small portion of what technically should be available. With the perennial sellouts and shortages, maybe they’re trying to keep expectations low… who knows. That being said, it’s not a bad-looking batch of goodies.

We have the usual suspects: ears, shirts, jackets, Loungeflys, and a couple of newer offerings, including a cross-body bag that will hold a water bottle (Corksicle?). 

There will of course be pins, ornaments, magnets, and various other items. You can count on anything that says “Dopey Challenge” to sell out in a hot second.

While I generally like the designs and the colors this year, I’m taking a very close look at the picture of those Marathon Weekend ears…the logo looks like it might be awkwardly crooked. Last year at Princess all the ears were crooked and they looked really dumb. I’d inspect these very carefully before dropping $35 on them!

Jan 3 update: I just saw the ears, and the logo is on a spring, so it will definitely always be crooked (on purpose)!

Remember, to shop on the first day of the expo, you’ll need to join the Virtual Queue, accessible thorugh the My Disney Experience app.

Princess Weekend Merch Preview

We’re counting down the days to Princess Half Marathon weekend, and now we know what merchandise will be up for grabs at the expo. As a reminder, access to merchandise on day one of the expo (Thursday, Feb 23) will be via virtual queue, so plan ahead! You need to be within 45 miles of Wide World of Sports to snag a spot in the queue.

These items will be with the race merchandise in the Advent Health Arena:

And for the Princesses that need a bit more bling for their Pandora bracelets:

I’m pretty sure I don’t need any more jackets or shirts, but I have an eye on the ears! What do you think? Drop a comment and let me know what’s on your shopping list
