ie The Great Birmingham Run. I knew someone who did it this year and I've just started running again (currently walk/running 4 miles). Currently pretty slow, but looking forward to doing a new challenge!

    Good for you! You have plenty of time to get ready. That will definitely keep you motivated.

    Way to go. I also signed up for my first half marathon, PF Changs Rock n Roll in Phoenix. It is January 15 and currently just did 6 miles for the first time. I am trying to figure out how to train and eat for all of this. I needed some race to help to keep me in line....but what a goal we have made for ourselves to achieve. Good Luck!!

    And to you! I kind of wish it was sooner (6 months, rather than 12) but I doubt they'll reorganise the event for me....
