    PROCEED WITH CAUTION!!

    Rumor has it you can run into an addition problem ... 5K's turn easily turn into 10K's which turn into 10 milers (as you were suckered into). This will undoubtedly tempt you into doing a half marathon and then one day some race director will swindle you out of your hard earned money to do a full marathon.

    Consider yourself warned!

    Congrats!

    That is So Great! This motivates me to keep running.

    The half marthons in all 50 states is really cool too! Travel and running all in one, I like that goal a lot.
