Another one has crossed over!

Congrat's to Michelle T. for crossing over to the other side.  Michelle has made the personal committment to challenging herself to train and run a 1/2 marathon!

WAY TO GO! 

Wooohooo!  Now we have to find her a race!

Kirsten where is the Surf City 1/2 marathon? I like their shiny metals! Those are the ones shaped like surfboards, right? Lol!

Michelle T. could do the Pasadena Half. 

Details Please!

Woo hoo! Go Michelle! You're in for the ride of your life!  Go to active.com to find a race...just a few I know of off the top of my head are

The Huntington Beach Half is on Super Bowl Sunday in January... very flat course, not so scenic though and the weather is very good.

The OC Half Marathon is in the spring, May I think.  More hilly, check the race website to learn about the course.

If you want to wait til the end of summer, there's the Disneyland Half Marathon on Labor Day weekend. I ran it. it's a great race. Fantastic organization, a huge blinged-out medal, but a little pricey...about $120 I think.

You can google any of these races to find their websites and learn details. 

Good Luck!

 

Thanks for the support, Monica! I am going to look into some of these races. Are you doing any of them? I know Lena and Kirsten are gearing up with the LA Marathon. I really wanted to do the Disneyland 1/2, and I think I have a coupon code for that one, that I got at the LB Marathon. I am volunteering to work the t-shirt booth at the LA County 1/2 on 12/12 + 12/13, I am going to see what they have there as far as discounts and all.

I have not committed to any races for 2010 yet. I have issues with my knees that need to heal. (I twisted my right knee while surfing yesterday) :(   I want to do Disneyland again though.

Thank you, Kimmie! I have some possibles now. I just have to decide which is going to be my first half marathon!
