          Hi, I'm new to the group. I'll be doing the Auckland Half Marathon on the 28th of October in Auckland, New Zealand (www.aucklandmarathon.co.nz). In preparation, I'm also aiming to do a 10k at the Devonport Classic on the 23rd of September (www.devonportclassic.co.nz), also in Auckland, NZ. Samantha

            New to the group and new to the half marathon.  Currently, just working on building a solid base and follow a plan for beginners.  I am just hoping to finish without injury.

              Welcome to HMT Zooco !  You're on the calendar, so make it happen!

               

              Your training looks solid, and you've got a couple months to get the base miles laid down for your first half marathon.

              Acceptable at a dance, invaluable in a shipwreck.

                Welcome, Jim,  and good luck!

                PBs since age 60:  5k- 24:36, 10k - 47:17. Half Marathon- 1:42:41.

                  Location: Litchfield, CT USA

                  Just something fun to do. $2 for a timed mile on a Mondo track, about 30 mins from my house. Can't pass it up. Time goal is a total guess.

                  Date: October 21

                  Race: : Baystate Marathon

                  Event URL:  http://www.baystatemarathon.com/

                  Distance:  26.2 Miles

                  Location: Lowell, MA USA

                  Goal: ?

                   

                  Unretiring from marathons (I did my one and only so far back in 2000). Goal TBD - right now in the 3:00 to 3:10 range, but that's a pretty big range, and I think maybe I'm wussing out, but can't bring myself - yet - to write something on the lower end of that range or better. I think I can, but it's also a "first" marathon again of sorts, so we'll see.

                  Come all you no-hopers, you jokers and rogues
                  We're on the road to nowhere, let's find out where it goes

                    Probably, maybe, the last 2 to add for me for the year:

                    Race: : A Night of Miles 2

                    Event URL:  http://www.townoflitchfield.org/Pages/LitchfieldCT_Rec/RoadRaces/nightmiles

                    Distance:  1 Mile

                    Location: Litchfield, CT USA

                    Goal: 4:59.99...what the heck, why not?

                     

                    Date: Sept 13

                    Race: : King of the Hill

                    Event URL: www.uwwesternct.org/koth

                    Distance:  "5K"

                    Location: Danbury, CT USA

                    Goal: 17:30...still

                     

                    Course is new...and runs right past my office window. These are the streets I run every day at lunch, sometimes twice a day - so defending the home turf here, to be king of the corporate sloths. I'd be lying if I said I didn't want to win this thing (always depends on who shows up, but still).

                     

                    MTA: based on the map, I'm guessing this course is waaay short, like 2.7miles. So, we'll just go with "win" as goal.

                        Hi all!

                         

                        I'm new to this group, and happy to be here!  

                         

                        So I was toying with the idea of running the inaugural HM in Princeton NJ this November, but it sold out 3 mos early!  inaugural!  Then I saw the Trenton half...its a flatter course anyway, and who wouldn't want to run across the "Trenton Makes the World Takes" bridge?

                         

                        Sign me up as follows:

                        Distance: 13.1 Miles

                        Location: Trenton, NJ USA

                        Goal: 1:30

                         

                        I've run a few HMs before, mostly in the 1:40 range, and I feel like I'm tracking ahead of those...just need to stay healthy and get the pace up a little.

                         

                        Seeya around.

                                I have a correction to make on one of my Park & Rec10K's. One isn't there, because I probably forgot to include it; but the one that is there has the finish time of the other...I think.

                                 

                                The missing one was the St' Paddy's Day 10K 3/17/12 and I ran 57:23

                                 

                                I ran the Memorial Day 10K 5/28/12 in 55:37
