                    I was thinking of doing the ING Georgia Half Marathon---wow--$65.00. On principle, I can't pay that.

                    Way too steep for a half marathon. Any reasonably,  sanely--priced (30-40.00) half marathons within 100 miles of Atlanta?

                        There are a few... Search on Active...

                         

                        Off the top of my head Run the Reagan or Thrill in the Hills in Feb.... Granite Grinder in April... there's a lot more in the second half of the year.   Then there's more when you travel just a bit further, like Berry Half in Rome in March...

                        I'd look for a discount and pay if you really want to minimize driving...
