Anyone running the full or the half. Has anyone done it in the past who can speak the the course layout, speed, etc? |

Hi Ryan!
I was planning on running the Philly half in September but may change my mind and run the half in Baltimore (closer to home and better for my schedule). Haven't run the event before. Let me know if you still plan on running.

Yep, definitely going to run it, but waffling between doing the full or the half. Grew up an O's fan and with the finish at Camden Yards it should be a blast. |

Was entered, but had a schedule change so am doing the marine corps instead. Baltimore looks great. I'll be interested to hear reports. |

Ryan, I sent my registration today. When the time gets closer maybe we can find a way to meet. This will be my first half. |

Finally registered, but DOH!, the half was closed, so I am doing the full. I've got a buddy doing the 1/2, his first as well. Based on the start times and where the two races converge at mile 16, we are going to try to meet up and finish together. We are staying at the Marriott Inner Harbor at Camden Yards. Will drop you a line when it gets closer. Good luck with the training! |

My trainig is going well....I think I was ready two weeks ago so now i am trying to stay focused. Received my race info in the mail yesterday so that reignited the fire. What pace does your friend run? I am staying at a friends house in Glen Burnie (15 minute drive). Getting a little nervous but looking forward to it. |

Glad to hear the training is going well. The adrenaline will be flowing on race day!
He'll be doing about a 9:00 min mile pace so we hopefully won't miss a beat when the two courses converge. |

That is where I am right now...9:00/mile on the fast end and 9:30/mile on the slow side. I guess next week is when the nerves will start to kick in. |
