Disney Princess Half Marathon
Free Training Plan 2026
Train Smart for Princess Weekend Even When Motivation Is Low, Life Gets Busy, and Consistency Feels Hard
This Isn't Just Another Free Plan
🏰 This plan was built differently.
Most free plans hand you a mileage calendar and call it a day.
This one factors in the reality of your life… the busy weeks, the tired legs, and the fact that you need more than just miles to get to that finish line feeling strong.
Inside this free plan, you'll get:
A training schedule with fewer miles, but smarter, more intentional ones
Planned lighter weeks built in every 5 to 6 weeks so your body gets a chance to recover and you have breathing room when life gets busy… without feeling like you've fallen behind
Cross training, strength work, and stretching woven into your weekly schedule
Speed work designed for your pace because getting faster doesn't have to mean running more
This is the plan for the runner who's ready to train with a little more intention and a little less "just survive the long run."
Does this sound familiar?
Right now, you’re doing everything you’re supposed to
You’re doing the training.
You’re running 1-1.5 miles more every other week
You’re sticking with the 3 mile “down weeks”
Showing up week after week.
But if you’re being honest…
You’re dreading the mile jumps.
But still not sure if you’re running enough.
You’re still exhausted week after week
And when you finally get to race day… you’re exhausted instead of excited. Is this actually going to work?

“This is one of the best training plans I have ever seen or used. I was so impressed with depth and care she has put into this…. I can not recommend Dr. Ali's training plan enough.”

“Your training plan was the first I’d ever heard of the 10% rule or saw mileage increases of uneven decimal numbers. It’s been fantastic! There’s no dread about jumping up and down entire mile each week.”

Who This Training Plan Is For
This plan was made for you if:
You're training for the Princess Half Marathon.
You're a 13-16+ minute/mile runner who wants to cross the finish line strong and ahead of the balloon ladies
You've trained before but want a plan that includes more than just running miles
You want to stop feeling like every long run is a gamble and start trusting your training
You want to actually enjoy the race with time to stop for the characters and soak in every magical mile
After coaching hundreds of runners, I can tell you with complete confidence that the problem isn’t that you’re not training enough, it’s that your training isn’t specific enough to what YOU need.
You don’t need to run more miles this time… you need to do it differently.
This training plan is built for slow, back-of-the-pack runners who want to show up to Princess Weekend ready, feeling strong in their training, confident going into race day, and with enough in the tank to stop for every character along the way…
No wondering if you’ve done enough. No guessing. Just a plan that actually fits your life.
