wear tank tops? I am definitely wearing shorts but wonder if I will be too cool in a tank. I would rather sweat than be too cold and it will probably be chilly waiting around before the sun comes up?

March 1st in Kissimmee, expect pleasant, warm spring weather with average highs in the upper 70s?F (around 26?C) and lows in the mid-50s?F (around 13?C)

Depends on how hot you run, but I heard lots of runners hit heat exhaustion last weekend. Much better to be chilly and pack sweats in your post-race bag.

Go to Goodwill and buy a $5 hoodie you can discard on the course and never see again. Pack oldest socks to wear as gloves and also throw away. Last weekend was unusual, sweat trickling down my back weather. Unusual.

I wear a tank, but if it's cool I wear arm sleeves. For the corral I buy space blankets on Amazon. I sometimes use 2 & I make a long skirt out of the bottom. Princess is usually perfect running weather! Cool while waiting, but perfect once you start.

I started wearing the arm sleeves one really cool Princess year & I didn't want to mess up my outfit with a long sleeve! The work perfectly & are easy to push down/take off if you get hot.

Throw away layers seems to be the way to go. I'd considered a disposable clear poncho if not too cold, others def say buy a sweatshirt & drop it

Thanks hodg. Yes, all seem to be in agreement about throwaway layers. I would never have thought of that! Clear poncho also a good idea. I always get so hot in those things when I wear them at Disney for rain.

I am just doing the half Kimluvsdisney. Maybe one day I will try for one of the Challenge medals but I am just hoping to make it through the half this year ! Ha

lol Ali Ababwa. I am going to have to pace myself carefully. Have never done a half before. Will,probably be in one of the last corrals since I didn't submit proof of time. I am scared of the Balloon Ladies! Ha
