Miracle Match Half Marathon in Waco, Texas. My first half marathon as a runner (I've always been a racewalker) so I'm looking forward to it.

Good luck on your first HM! Have fun with it, and of course, smile as you cross the finish line.

Grand Rapids Half Marathon on Sunday. I'd like to beat my recent PR, but if I don't I'm cool with that. My last few weeks of training have been really crappy, so I'll take anything faster than last year's PR at this point. k

Come on Zoomy! Get your race face on and kick some PR butt. Do it for all your RA friends who can't run this weekend. Big grin

That is the coolest thing! When I first did that it really made me feel like a *real* runner! Smile

The White Rock Half awaits you, Modal. Derek, Courtney98, and I are already signed up.

Are you still recruiting?

Quote from Bonkin on 10/26/2007 at 11:17 AM:

This summer you asked me to bug you. Now I must resort to Jedi mind tricks (again).

I asked for hounding, which is numerous steps above bug. Tongue

Jedi mind tricks don't work on me. I need a siren's call to get me out. And, a siren as my pace setter to keep me running! Cool

(The other free dictionary picture was a bit too racy)

Wow, lots of racers. Best of luck to all of you. My next is a half marathon on 11/04. I see some of you running the Grand Rapids Marathon. I'll be anxious to hear about your results as well as what you think of the event. I was born/raised about 30 miles from there and my parents still live in MI along with a lot of my cousins, etc. That race is on my wanna-do list.

At the end of the day, be happy with where you are and what you've accomplished.

Whereabouts? I'm up just north of Muskegon. It's a really great race...not too big, nice atmosphere, beautiful course, microbrewed beer and chili at the finish. Smile
