    Nice. The Chilly Willy is definitely aptly named. Good luck and stay healthy for your next race!

    I have a half mary in June and then my very first marathon in October. There will likely be a sprinkling of one mile, 5K and 10k races too.

    I just signed-up for my first half in 2 years (4th overall.) It's a small one in the town I live in, Papillion, NE. Incidentally, my last was the same venue. It's a tough course and it kicked my butt the last time. Training in Nebraska in the Winter isn't always so easy. Turns out, I wasn't trained up enough to meet my goal.

    Hello to a fellow Nebraskan!

    Signed up for a 5 mile in July, and Seriously considering signing up for a half marathon in August. About a month between the 2. Current long run is 6 miles, so the 5 mile will be no problem, just have to keep stretching it for the half.

    Made it official, signed up for a September half marathon, and have the 5 mile race in July. With 6 months to train, I'm aiming to do better than "just finish" the half marathon
