I plan to run this one as my first marathon on Oct 12 2008. I just found out that registration will not open until Feb 1. I am running between 10-15 miles a week now - my long run is about 5 miles - I have a long way to go....but I know I can get there.

See how they run...

Good luck! I ran it in 2006, it was a great experience, and my first Boston Qualifier! Hoefully last year's weater was a fluke. In 2006 it was cool and drizzly, but the race was a couple weeks later (22nd), not sure why.
