    December 9th is the Dallas Half Marathon and I'd love to be able to do it. Not sure if I'll be ready though?

    Super Spartan 12k - September 22nd
    BMO Marathon 5k - October 6th (I've never raced a 5k before so I figured I'd close out my race season with one)

    My second half marathon, the Disneyland Half on Sept 2.

    I'll also be doing the 5K on Sept 1 there, but that's really just for fun since some of my friends are running it, I don't consider myself training for it.

    I'm running my second half marathon, the Great Birmingham Run, UK, in October.

    I'm also going to do a 10k at a local running club on 28 August, as part of my training for that.

    I'm in the ballot for the London marathon 2013, if I don't get in, I have my eye on Barcelona....

    jeesh i think im the only non-bib collector here!!! I have mapped out my own half marathon where I live which I am going to attempt sometime in october :-)..but i dont think i have the legs to do it..we shall see :-)

    If I manage it, then Toronto Waterfront in 2013 or one of the San Francisco/Bay area marathons ...my dream would be to do the safaricom marathon at Lewa game reserve in Kenya, but it's not a good one for beginners due to the severe heat and high altitude..and if that dosn't kill you, the lions and cape buffalo probably will.
