I decided to bite the bullet....I've been thinking about it for around 2 years now (had a baby in there that sidelined my plans, but he is now 10 months old). I signed up for a half at the end of November in Chicago! It's my first race over 5k and my very first timed race.

Anyone else training currently and want to be friends? I could use some support!

    I just signed up for the Princess half at Disney in February! I've not done a timed race yet (schedule issues--I run 5-10 k regularly)...I'll be signing up for everything I can this fall to get ready!

    That's a good one, enjoy! I did it this past February. Well run, fun, great atmosphere. The only part that sucked was getting up at 3 am...
