Way to go...you'll love it. I've only run 2 half marathons and it's such a thrill. Hal Higdon has a really good training program that I've used for the half. Take a look at it too...might give you some ideas for training. It helped me a lot. Just Google Hal Higdon training and you should find it. I ran the last half that I did in 1hr 48 minutes using his program.

Good Luck and enjoy!

Very nice Alan - Way to crush that 2 hour mark.

Tammie - Great to hear about your awesome 1/2 - Finishing at Lambeau field is really cool. Even if Brett Farve doesn't return.

Amy - Can't wait to hear about the Utah 1/2, hope the knees are well!

Mine (like Greg) is going to come this weekend as part of a 1/2 Ironman. I am just praying that the legs don't cramp and that they can keep moving (albeit slow) through the entire 13.1. Breaking 2 hours would be a small miracle and a shock. I would have to be feeling really good. Most likely I am planning a 2:20:00 at around 10 to 10:30 min miles.

I did average an 8:30 min mile after a long ride last weekend, but that was only for 2 miles. Not sure I can sustain that for 13.1 on rollers.
