13.1 Marathon on March 1st in Miami, FL. I wasn't going to be ready for the ING Half in January so this was a nice, reachable goal.
Now to convince the wife I "need" to run in some 5Ks before then. :)posted over 3 years ago | Report

Martian Half Marathon on April 5. It's a goofy race with lots of inflateable martians lining the fairly boring route through a park. This will be my second time running it - close to home so convenient. The shirt is notorious for being really over the top. Completely covered. Last year's looked like a spaceman's top basically with hoses, belt, etc. This year's looks like there is an alien inside ... shirt appears to be ripped so that you see alien inside it. I've had coworkers tell me that they don't want to run with me when I wear last year's shirt. It is that bad.

Looking to sign up for my first half marathon next week - the Marine Corps Historic Half in Fredericksburg VA. The race is May 18th and I plan to start training when I return from a ski trip to Colorado towards the end of January. If this goes well I'll turn my attention to a marathon maybe towards the end of 2009.

I'd love to run the FP...I love the medal with the cute little pig butt on the back. It's right around my birthday so maybe I could justify my Michigan family driving to Ohio for a race that way?

My 1st Half Marathon! NJ LBH on May 3, '09
I am scared to death that I registered for it b/c I am unsure whether I can build up to that length in 4 months. I will be following a training plan to get me there. Still, I am a 3-4 mile runner and usually do 5ks so I am VERY intimidated!

I completely agree Chip! By no means am I an elite runner. I will always fall into the "slow and steady wins the race" class of runners. But I, too, love the feeling of a race and being in a crowd. I did 5ks almost every weekend or every other weekend in the spring, summer, and, fall of 2008 for that reason. I do not expect my time to get much faster but putting in a quick 3 miles with a crowd of people is So Fun! Who cares if we are in the middle to back of the pack. We are doing something healthy for ourselves.
I think "slow and steady" is what has motivated me to register for my 1st half m. Since I don't expect to ever be the speedest runner I figured I should shoot for building up my endurance threshold instead.
Good Luck to You!posted over 3 years ago | Report

Don't be intimidated. I know hard to do. I was the same way. Last year I went from no running to my first half marathon in 56 days. I did it in 2:12. I think I could have gone faster. I had legs at the end of the race, but there were also a ton of runners and it was hard to break out. It was the Indianapolis Half that Doug is doing. Cool run but lots of people. I didn't want to push it on my first race of the year and hit the wall. Trust your training plan and you will do fine. Enjoy the journey.

Williamsburg Colonial Half Marathon.-22 Feb. It is sponsored by Budweiser. No doubt they will have delightful samples of their fare. My wife thinks that is disgusting that I could think about drinking so early in the morning. To me, gettting up at the butt-crack of dawn, and burning almost 2000 calories, it isn't that big of a deal. I think there are some hills for this one, and I do not like those because I always have to go back down them.

I know it adds up. Some are lottery so I might not make it (Grandma's) I look at it as an investment in myself. If I sign up I train because I don't want to look like a dork and not finish so its good motivation. Also training keeps me healthy, sane and helps with life's stress. My son is starting to run too. We have a race this weekend so I have to pay for two entry fees. :-)

Good luck Paul. I am kind of hooked on the half now. I did my first one in Virginia Beach last August, (RnR also) and it was a lot of fun. I've done three more since then and have two more on deck. Get a couple of 11-12 milers in. I ran out of gas at the 10 mile mark because I was training with 8-10 miler long runs and it seemed like it wasn't enough.

Great Bay half marathon on April 5. This will be my 3rd half - but only time I've done one in the spring - hopefully the weather in March will be cooperative for getting the longer training runs in. I have done my other half races in the fall. Doing the race with a friend and we also signed up for a 5 miler March 8th - sponsored by a bar with beer following - how can can you not sign up for that?
then 4 on the 4th - 4 miler on July 4th in my home town - dd (age 10) to do it again too. Old Home days 5k - August (dd to do as well). Seacoast Half - Nov.09, Millenium Mile (1 miler downhill)- Dec 09 (whole family - I hope).

One of my favorites that is coming up in May is the Marine Corps Half Marathon in Fredericksburg, VA. Anyone else running? I have ran 3 full Marine Corps Marathons and 2 Marine Corps Half Marathons . . I can't wait for this half in 2011. I'm really shooting for 2 hrs but that a high standard for me, but it's worth a shot.
www.marinemarathon.com has lots of races going on at the Quantico Marine Base. I am running the 8k on the 26th of March . . . come join me..drop a line !posted about 1 year ago | Report
