    It's not too soon but take it easy. Don't really "race it" if it's your first and your main goal is the one in March.

    @omma_to_3 @FitGirl0123 - I agree with both of you and ran the half this past Saturday! The thread came back up because I posted an update. :)

    I just read your update. Good job!! The last few miles of any race are going to be brutal. Good luck at your next half in March! I also read that you are considering a full. I definitely recommend it at least once. My very first race was a marathon lol. No shorter distances warming me up, just training for the full lol.

    Thank you!! I really want to do a full, I think it's such an incredible accomplishment. I can't imagine doing one as my first race - that's amazing!
