I've completed 5 half marathons, so great choice! While I am not the fastest runner out there, I enjoyed every one of them. +1 for Hal Higdon's traning programs, they helped me immensely.

another vote for polar! My f6 has worked for 4+ years

Their servings are more than what a "normal" serving should be, hence the high calorie count (their burritos are 1000 cal +) I dont eat there frequently, but when I do i get a salad with chicken, beans and salsa

The new plan is working for a lot of people. For me it wasnt for some reason. I did best on Winning points back in 2002. MFP is working also, amazing what the power of the internet can do :)

I like my HRM! Got one for spin class 4 years ago and havent looked back- I cant work out without it! It takes all the guesswork away for me. Sometimes I burn more calories than the machines say, sometimes less. Depends on your intensity level. I am very pro HRM

When I was training last summer during 90+ days, I would get up at 5:30 to complete long runs on the weekends. Good luck!!
