Yay! Only 7 more days until registration!
For those that ran this year, how hot was it? I am concerned about training in Maryland, then heading down into the FL sun/heat. Do you think it will be much of a temperature change from doing the WDW 1/2 in January?
I am brand new to running- and this is just one of those things that keeps nagging at me about signing up for a race in FL. Thanks!

I can't believe that the registration is open already. Yay!!!
Yes, LAUREN froze her a --- family board, family board, OFF! I have never been so cold for so long. There is NO WAY it was 52 out there, 45 maybe. DH has a theory we must have been near a retention pond or some water when they put us in the waiting area because it was MUCH colder over there than in the parking lot. MUCH COLDER!
So for all you non-northeners that are thinking about coming: IT'S FREAKIN' COLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My legs actually stayed cold to the touch until we were in the back 40 coming around for the finish. Right about the time Caits is saying, wow, it's getting a little warm out here, I'm a mile behind her saying, WHY AM I STILL COLD!
And that, my friends, is the weather according to Lauren: Cold with a side of cold with a slight sprinkeling of COLD!
I got some new shoes today!!! Yay!!! I also got some sport jelly beans that I'm going to try on my long runs. Does anyone know if the beans work well?
I like them, because unlike gu or gels I can be chewing them while I'm running. But I actually like the Clif Shot Blocks even better - not as sugary and also easy to chew and swallow.
