Harrisburg it is.
Eric decided to tell me he was running the Harrisburg Marathon, via this blog post, so in return, I will tell that I accept, via *this* post.
Harrisburg it is. Harrisburg was my first choice all along, so I am pleased with the decision, however I would have run Steamtown too.
I am planning to start training for it on July 6th 2008, giving me 18 weeks before the November 9th starting gun.
That is perfect as far as I can tell. It accomplishes a number of things I wanted to do this year. I wanted to run Hands-On House half marathon again, and still can if I do Harrisburg. I wanted to have May and June be free running so I could mess around and rack up some 5/10K t-shirts in the beautiful weather of late Spring and early Summer. I also think it is likely that it will be much cooler at Harrisburg than it will be at Steamtown which was run early in October this year.
And Steamtown isn’t going anywhere, maybe next year.
lol… I thought you’d like that. Now we can chat like giddy girls tomorrow on our run about what we’re gonna wear and how we’re gonna do our hair… I mean… nevermind.
