On the Nike+ website (nikerunning.nike.com), one can create a login and establish goals. The coaching too is pretty cool. If you have the nike+ sensor which works in conjunction with the apple ipod, actual results will be uploaded so you can stay on track.
I loaded the half-marathon as an intermediate 1 participant. The program starts 2/7 (but I will start 2/6) and push any Sunday to Saturdays and long runs definitely to Saturdays. It is not a perfect program but helps you stick with your goals and builds you up appropriately. It is a 12 week program ending April 30, the day before my first race.
Anyone else scheduling out???

Well it's a new Decade!
I have to write out my running goals for 2010. I plan to do the 1/2 marathon on May 1st. And then the full marathon in November! Inbetween there the Treck in July. I would also like to find a fun 5K and 10K to do this year to keep me going. I just pray not to get injured!
Anyone in with me? Thanks Earl for posting the races out there! I need to get signed up now!

Here are some potential local races
These dates look pretty good for me (all Saturday's)
May 1, 2010 - Half Marathon 13.1 Miles http://www.parkwayhalf.com/ Pretty sure I am going to do this one.

Sep 2010 - Half Marathon Granite Bay (last year, Sat Sep 19th)
Nov 2010 - Marathon 26.2 Miles (last year Nov 1st) http://http://www.scarsports.com/
There is also October 2nd - St George Marathon that is an option. It is highly rated amongst marathons in the US. I think they use a lottery system so there are no guarantees. Registration opens Apr 1st and they accept 7200 runners. http://www.stgeorgemarathon.com/registration/procedures.php

We are still in!
Thanks for getting us going Earl. Bec did great running over the Christmas break. She did 6 or 7 runs over the two week period. I wasn't so good. We are back at it now but lost a lot because of the little running and eating right vacation. We are thinking the run in Sacramento, 1/2 marathon on the 14th of May looks pretty good. Rhett and Claudine you guys can come out and run with us. I will send you the link so you can check it out.
We both really enjoyed ourselves during the holidays and gained some weight back. We will post on Friday what our weight is so tune in then.
Hope you all had a great holiday and are ready for the new year.

Come on....the holidays are over!
Still trying to schedule out my running goals this year. I am thinking Marathon somewhere between June and October. I need to do another half to see if I can beat my time and prep me for the big one.
I ran 5 miles today on a hilly trail. I need to get back on my 3X a week routine!
What are your goals? Anyone still working out?
