I plan on posting race reports after each race describing the location, the course, what kind of goodies I got with the race fee, crowd support and how I ran the race.Jennahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07229927723147679723noreply@blogger.comBlogger3125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4349957052719842312.post-21173983537396676072008-12-12T13:32:00.000-08:002008-12-12T13:34:34.333-08:00Well, as much as I enjoy the half marathon and want a PR, I am 90% sure I am going to run a marathon on February 15th instead of the half! It's been 10 years since I've run a marathon. The time seems right. It's a local race, I know the course, there will be pacers, I can wear my ipod and my husband and son can come down and cheer me on.Jennahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07229927723147679723noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4349957052719842312.post-30563579180705531402008-11-07T16:17:00.000-08:002008-11-07T16:22:00.780-08:00new half's will be added to the list!Just finished signing up for the last half marathon I'll do this winter season. I've got the Jacksonville Bank half on December 21, Clearwater halfathon on Jan. 18, Sarasota Half on February 15 and the Disney Princess half on March 8. I will try for that PR at the Jacksonville and Sarasota halfs. The Clearwater half has a few high bridges, what we floridians call hills, so that will be a training run. The Disney race will be packed, so I just plan on enjoying the course and having fun. :)Jennahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07229927723147679723noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4349957052719842312.post-89545257526862876292008-11-05T15:28:00.000-08:002008-11-05T16:29:30.424-08:00The half marathon list so far<strong>Blue Moon</strong> Half Marathon, Palm Harbor, FL, November 2, 2008<br />38 (age), 2:14:45 (time)<br /><br /><strong>Sarasota</strong> Half Marathon March 2, 2008<br />37 (age) 2:06:51 (time), 9:36 (pace), Age group: 66 out of 185 runners.<br /><br /><strong>San Francisco</strong> Half Marathon, July 29, 2007<br />36 (age), 2:16:35 (time), Place overall: 2526 out of 4924.
