So, the plan has changed and I'm now registered for the Philadelphia Marathon on Nov 23. I decided to follow through on my "100 miles" commitment despite not getting into the NIKE Half. That meant I needed to add a long race. My parents and sister live just outside Philly so I can wrap up the running season and tack on the Thanksgiving family-time in the same week.
SO, I've got the Queens Half on Sept 14, the Shaolin :) on Oct 12 and the Philly Full Mary on Nov 23.
Training is on schedule, clicking right along. I haven't raced since the Brooklyn Half and I'm pretty anxious for that "race weekend" feeling, especially after the Olympics hoopla.
To remember: stretch, water, shoulders/elbows back and down, consistent pace.
See you in Queens!!!
Running miles to date: 58.3
Next race: Queens Half-Marathon 9/14/08

I'll see you in Queens for sure! As for Philly, I'm still considering (and yes, I know I'm past the discount deadline... that kind of sucks). I want to see how my knee fares at the half before committing to another full.
good luck in philly...ill be there as well!
Been on any new marathons since this?
