Hi everyone I just wanted to share what I found today!!!

Here is a 1/2 and a full Mari that is for Woman only!! However, you either have to be 40+ or sign up with a partner who is 40+. You are able to walk the 1/2, but you have to do it within the 6 hour limit.

Needless to say, I just wanted to share :)

Has anyone done this?

I would love to do it, but I am just on week 4 of the C25K so I don't think I could ever be ready for this. However, if I get my girl friend to do it with me then who knows I just might even if that means walking some of it too!!

That is great to know that!!!!

MORE is even willing to find partners for those people who do not have a person 40 or older to enter with. They really have made it an effortless for those woman who want to do this.

My new years resolution was to do a 10K and work towards a 1/2 but I don't think there is enough time to do it!!! :goodvibes

Wow! This sounds like fun. I definitely fit the age requirement. :rolleyes1 :cool1:

I'm going to have to seriously check this out. One of my best friends lives in Manhattan and I've been thinking about visiting her sometime in the next few months so this might work out great.

Oh, I see that you can't just do a half-marathon - you have to have a partner. Hmmmm. I may have to find someone to team up with.

Susie -

I would to partner up with you, however it is too early for me to commit to that long of a run right now. I have restarted the C25K program and by Feb 10th I will be back to 3.1 miles. However, I don't think I would be able to do a 1/2 two months later.

I am not ruling it out, but I think I need more time to prove to myself I can do it!
