[iyamamaschke]

Taking the Plunge here on the 16th I am registering. I wanted to do the FUll but, with injuries and such and my Kids recital on the same day I wanna be able to see them Dance I just can't so I am going to do the Half and I will set my sights on the full marathon next year either way I ahve the goal to do it and that's what matters.

It's 55 dollars if you register early so I am really excited about all this it's gunna be great.

I am going to get some new runners as well and Break them in over the month Before so that I don't ahve to worry about Blisters and such.

Re: I am Registering for the Halfer

hey Sarah is there a price difference between the whole andhalf? if not why don't you sign up for the full knowing you will do the 1/2 and if by race week you are all better you could decide to go the full distance

Re: I am Registering for the Halfer

I'm not too sure I would love to do teh full but, I think there is a Price difference and If you register for the full ya have to run the full I think I will check into it though I would love to do teh full.

Also my kids dance recital changed up one week to mothers day LOL. HMMM I wish they would ahve kept it where it was.

Re: I am Registering for the Halfer

At the Disney marathon, you couldn't sign up for the full and then opt for the half. I remember thinking 'dang, I should have gone the full 26.2 instead of the 13.1' .. but yanno, looking back now, I think it was wise to do the half marathon first and gradually build up to the big banana. Knowing you've finished a half marathon is a real mental boost as you train for the full. And I really believe that finishing a full marathon is more MENTAL than physical.
