Marathon Buddy

So, one project for 2010 will be to find a marathon buddy. My idea is that I could find someone who would like to run the Sunburst in the 8:45/M - 9:00/M range. This person could live anywhere in a 4-5 hour radius. My idea is that we would keep in touch via e-mail and telephone and do a a few long runs together before the marathon.

Also, here are two more benchmarking events (read: races) in preparation for the half marathon. Both are in Flushing:

• Snowflake 10K Run [2010-1-16]
  
• Sweetheart 10K Run [2010-2-13]
• National Half Marathon [2010-3-20]
  

This would be a good way to stay in "race mode" during the next two months. This is one per month--probably no need to do anything more. Perhaps I should do extra running at the end of these 10K races.
