I am, Groovygirls (Joanne) is too as it is her hometown race. I think AmyBeth was considering it too. Come on along and join the fun!!!!!!

 

[momof2minnies]

It does sound great.Are you registered yet?

Linda

I have been since about April actually. Right after the Great Bay half I think is when I did it. I have not found a hotel yet. DH has not decided whether he is going yet. Still a lot up in the air. I am doing the Applefest, the following weekend is the 5K named after my DH grandmother in Farmington, ME and then 10/25 is the ToT 13K. Busy month. Fortunately for me, I will be on hiatus until spring!!

 

[momof2minnies]

OK.I have to think about it a little.See what DH wants to do.Go or not.

Off for a run now.

Linda

 

[princessrunner]

Linda, check with your DH. Mine does not run or walk so, if yours does not either they would at least have someone to hang with!!

It will be a fun time, mini WISH meet, I hope you can join us too!!

 

[momof2minnies]

Lisa,
My DH said OK do it if I want.Are you guys going solo or bringing the kids?

I will look into registering right now.

Chad has done this race 2 or 3 times. Really nice race. And very close to home for us! He is considering it, but doesn't know if he's trained enough. I am thinking he'll be fine since he starts training for the Las Vegas full marathon next week.

Hey - any race that has apple crisp at the finish has to be good!

 

[princessrunner]

Linda: I am unsure on the kidlet situation. I am thinking that we are not because we leave for WDW 3 weeks later for the ToT week with them. I still have not made any hotel ressies so it is still up in the air!!

Kristi: Whaaaaat? Chad is not going? Come on, it is only 13.1!!!! He ran Great Bay so well, how could he not?????

Martha: So, ya comin?????????

 

[momof2minnies]

Lisa,
I am registered!!!!! We are not going to bring the kids.A weekend for us sounds good right now.

Leaving for work,talk to you later.

Linda

 

[princessrunner]

Linda: YAY!!! It will be so good to see/meet everyone!!!

I would have but I had already signed up for the Leaf Peepers 1/2 on the same day in Waterbury, VT. Perhaps next year.

 

[momof2minnies]

Lisa,
Is Amy registered,don't see her name?
Linda

 

[princessrunner]

Linda, she said it was a go and then had to go to Vegas for her conference. It has been a long time since she has been back on the boards so maybe not. I have not heard from her in awhile.

 

[momof2minnies]

Yeah I think I will PM her to see if she and Scott are going.

 

[momof2minnies]

Anyone else?

 

[Cindylou]

Hi Linda,

I don't plan on running, but if it's good weather I hope to come to scream team. I'd come if the weather was bad, but I'll have my kiddies with me.
