    Haven't quite started the training yet.. but I'm working on the Rex Healthcare Half Marathon (Raleigh NC) on November 4th and the Walt Disney World Half Marathon on Jan 12 2013.

    Training "officially" starts in September, but of course I'm still running my normal weekly sets, that's just when the ramp up in mileage starts.


    I loved the Disney World half...I did it twice and would love to do it again! You will love it!

    I am entered in the Bar Harbor Half Sept 15th although I haven't exactly done the appropriate training...I have a gross history of signing up for halfs and then not doing appropriate training...Such a bad habit (and money pit) that I haven't been punished for yet...maybe one of these times I will do the training...

    my next race is in October, and it's 12km. So for me I'm going to try to get it under 62mins.
    I do plan on doing another half marathon, but next year, after I do tough mudder.

    Half marathon on November 3rd to support Ovarian Cancer :)
    Training hard, but scared! I have done a 5k race, 5 mile race and a 25k trail run so far. Got tendinitis in my foot after the trail run and had a month off. On my 4th week of half-marathon training!!

    I'm registered for the Rock 'n' Roll Half Marathon in Virginia Beach, VA on September 2nd, a Turkey Trot 5k on Thanksgiving day in Williamsburg, the Christmas Town Dash 8k at Busch Gardens Williamsburg on December 2, and the Disney Princess Half Marathon in February next year.

    I'm planning to do one short race (5k or 8k) each month for the rest of this year. I already know the November and December races, but not sure about the October race.

    Happy running!

    I have a half coming up in October that I'm probably technically "training" for, but I'm already at the point where I could run 13 miles tomorrow if I had to. So I guess I'm training for a marathon net year... maybe. Still don't trust my crappy knee enough to make that kind of commitment.
