I signed up yesterday for the Disney Princess half! I have my first 10K in 2 weeks and then 7 months to prepare for my first half marathon. For inspiration, I'd like to add some Disney songs to my running playlist. Any suggestions?

Anyone else doing the Princess half?

    That sounds like so much fun!! I would suggest "Under the Sea" definitely, and also "Be Our Guest"...both have a pretty quick beat!

    Hmm I need a certain BPM in running songs so not sure how much disney would work, but the first thing that comes to mind is the "be a man" song from mulan. :P Also maybe the "one jump ahead" song from aladdin? Good luck!

    That one song, "I need a hero" was on the Hercules soundtrack! I have it on my playlist, and I love it.

    Thank you! I'm making a list!

    I, for some reason, could only come up with songs from Jungle Book when I was thinking about it yesterday and that's not even one of my favorites. Thanks for jogging my memory!

    I used to have Disney Mania 1 (gift from my 12th birthday lol) and it had a bunch of Disney songs redone by popular singers/ bands. Smash Mouth did I Wan'na Be Like You from the Jungle Book and I really liked their version. I really wish I knew where that cd was now lol. Bare Necessities is another good one from that movie too.

    I want to sign up for the Princess half, but my job is all over the place and I won't be able to get off in time. I have a playlist on Spotify called "If You Have Haters, You're Doing Something Right"

    I'm a huge Disney fan so you'll see a lot of influence there, among other great songs that get me through my workouts. My username is nikknyc on there too.

    My wife and I ran the Disney Marathon Weekend half together and then she ran the Disney Princess Half, but her playlist was not Disney Music :( I personally don't like running that long with music, for 5ks I do, but at Disney races they have things every mile that entertain you a little so you don't terribly need music.

    Good luck and have fun. They put on some great races, with some amazing hardware for finishing!
