I am doing the Queen Bee half marathon in October in Cincinnati and would love to make friends with others who are also interested. This will be my first half and I am super excited and it would be nice to have some friends to chat with along the way and maybe even meet up with. I am 34 and live in Kentucky and I am not very fast at this point. I expect to finish toward the back of the pack but I intend to finish!

    Its on Oct 11th! I believe it is put on by the same people who do the Pig Marathon. We did the 10K at the Pig Marathon and I saw people at the expo who were registering for it. Here is the website: http://queenbeehalf.com/ I found a lot more info on it on their facebook site though!

    I will check this one out. I have a ton of races I'm looking at for this fall, but it would be nice to do one close to home. Will have to check on the course...I've heard awful things about the Flying Pig course, so if it's the same I'll probably skip it. My knees don't hold up very well to a lot of hills.

    It is my first half as well - I plan to run/walk it. Ultimate goal: finish Upright and without puking! ;) I just started ZenLabs 13.1 training app - essentially a couch to half marathon (more like a sometimes runner to half marathon)
    Feel free to friend me - I'm Cincinnati!
