My original goal was to run a half marathon outside of Michigan and Ohio in 2012. I moved it up a year. I will be running a half marathon in Boston, MA on May 29, 2011-Memorial Day weekend. Its called Boston's Run to Remember. The run honors Massachusetts Law Enforcement Officers killed in the line of duty by celebrating their lives. This is something that I feel strongly about and wanted to support the Massachusetts Law Enforcement Officers.
My first plan was to run the Boston Athletic Association Half Marathon, but that is usually run in October. In October, I run the Detroit Free Press Half Marathon and next year I think I'm going to be running the Great Turtle Half Marathon on Mackinac Island. Detroit and Mackinac Island should be back-to-back weekends. So as of now, the BAA Half Marathon is on hold until 2012 or 2013. That is one race that I really want to run.
I'm really excited to be running a half marathon in Boston. The course isn't the same as the famous Boston Marathon course, but to me, it will be the biggest half marathon I've ever run. Boston here I come!
