2018 Princess Half Marathon

[PrincessV]

Anyone else check the math? Almost 10,000 in corral F. 9700ish. That's nearly half the field! Oy. Let us all cross fingers that rD does many mini waves...

Corral assignments are posted.

Thanks for the heads up! Can you tell me again how you translate your bib number to corral? I forget this every time!

Nevermind! I found it! Copying here if anybody wants it:

My husband is in B for the Half so that means A for the 10k

Still lots behind them too

If you are doing the Challenge, your bib number is not in the range posted above. Just FYI.

i realize we won't get our official 10k corrals until we pick up our bibs but historically any guesses based on bib #s?

Yes, but broken up into two corrals!
F = 9733
G = 3099
H = 4743

Where did you find this? I'm in for the challenge and my bib isn't in this range.

I got corral F but my proof of time should have me in corral E!! I also can't find the information about having it corrected anymore. It just says no changes can be made...

Wow, they have really reduced the number of corrals, not sure I like that. I think it is harder for everyone with so many starting all at once. This run has changed so much over the years and this will be my last. I'm proud to say I am a perfect princess and grateful for all the memories I made through the years. My two daughters and I all ran our first half marathon back in 2009, that's when the event was held in March. Finally broke the two hour mark in 2016 and I could go on, but too much has changed and so have I.
Actually just got in from running my best 6 miles this year and finding out bid numbers is fun.

Just thinking, the first year there was three corrals and we did not have to submit a time and so we just guess and were put in "B" and now my last princess and I have been assigned "B". Just seems poetic to me.

Here's the corrals for the challenge:

Yep, I got corral E but my POT has me finishing in the 2:20 range (corral D).

I got Corral E. I'm surprised they made F that big. Doesn't really make sense.

 

[Dis_Yoda]

Remember with POT - they expect some difference - your 10K time doesn't directly equal your half marathon pace as it will be slightly slower. If you are doing the challenge - they expect some fatigue there as well.

Its been their trend the past 3 races starting with Dark Side 2017.

 

[ohdanalee]

Fair enough, but they should take into consideration my 10k was ran in the Florida humidity in the late summer.

This is the first corral for those of us who did not submit a POT.

Corral A for me and B for my husband! We'll see if I start with him or maybe I'll stick with A, stop for pictures and let him catch up. He'll probably be too competitive to stop and take any pictures.

My daughters are 302XX and 304XX and I'm hoping that will be Corral A since that's where my husband and I will be. One of my daughters is in the wheelchair division so not sure if that is automatically A or it's own corral. I thought the wheelchairs start in front.

I saw some pictures from last year - someone was 314XX and was B, someone else was 326XX and was D.

Wheelchairs start about 2 minutes before "Elite"

There is a special "wheelchair" runners booth when you arrive for the race in the morning. Your daughter will have to check in there.
