I know there are a few other runners on here, so I wanted to share. I just signed up for the Rock n Roll Half Marathon in Philly. It's not til September 18th, so 6 weeks before the wedding. This is my weight loss/fitness plan

)
I'm excited to run another one!

October 2011 Siggy: Then and Now, first and last pic of you and FI
My MOH and I are contemplating doing a half in October. The furthest we have done is 10km. Do you guys think thats too much of a jump? We have 6 months to train I figure.

Bronx run sounds fun! I have the Philly Broad St 10 miler this Sun. I am not sure how I feel about it... I've done it before and it is a really fun race (but crowded!!) but this training cycle has sucked with the weather, etc. and I just don't feel ready. At least the weather is supposed to cooperate!
What training plan are you going to use? I used Ryan Hall's that is posted on runner's world website and loved it!

Thanks for posting ladies! Running brides...woo hoo!!
I hit a slump the past 3 weeks since my engagement but 2 of my 3 bridesmaids who have been running for a couple of years are the Philly Broad Street run soon and then another race in San Fran 2 weeks before my wedding.
You girls inspire me! I'm heading back on the horse.
I'm doing two 5ks in May. I need something in Augustish to keep me going.
Anybody wanna do the Tinker Bell half marathon in January???

I used this plan for my first half http://running.about.com/od/racetraining/a/basichalf.htm
Meaghann - the longest I had run prior to my first half was a 5 mile race. Just start training and throwing in some longer runs on weekends and you'll be ready by Oct.

Thanks! That makes me feel better. I know I can work towards it. My family is not very supportive of it- they think I will injure myself. I will keep you all posted!
