I just started running again after a long layoff, so the goal right now is to just finish. I just "took the plunge" myself and signed up for the CIM as well, with a similar goal of simply finishing! It will be my first marathon, and in October, I will be running the (Sacramento) Urban Cow Half Marathon. I actually signed up for the half first, but the more I've been running and reading, the more I have been encouraged and empowered to run a full marathon.

Green Mountain Marathon in Vermont, October 17th. Can't beat the price (25 bucks), and rural Vermont is pretty (although it might be a tad hilly). Any New Englanders here? Wanna join? And have some coconut ice cream afterwards?
Actually, my friends and I wanted to do the Mt. Desert Island in Maine, but it was already full when we tried to sign up. Bummer.
oh, by the way, training in hot and humid weather sucks. any ideas on how to make it a less miserable experience, other than running naked at 5 in the morning, preferably under lawn sprinklers the whole time?
