I'm training for the Omaha Half Marathon on September 23rd. Anyone else out there running this one?

    I'm not, but good luck! Is it a big race? Lots of people?

    Thanks! It's pretty big, but not as big as Lincoln. The 2011 race had 603 marathon finishers and 2308 1/2 marathon finishers. Lincoln had 10,000 entrants. Apparently, there is a killer hill in the Omaha course. I looked at it on the website...they have a cool elevation profile. It's close to 2 miles long from miles 7.5-9.5. Lots of goal times are lost there, I think. I'd post a picture, but can't remember how.
