So we're going to do a half marathon in 18 weeks. It's going to be a trail run on Mackinaw Island in Michigan in late October. It looks awesome. We also are going to do at least one 10K before then. My wife is big into RunnersWorld, and we found a good program online to get each of us ready in time. I'm pretty pumped.

Anyways, since I know several of your are runners, do you have any thoughts on race training that you wished you'd known before you started out?

The Michigan Upper Peninsula is some of the prettiest country in the U.S. BTW, it's speleed Mackinac, though it's pronunced with a W like you typed.

Sounds like a fun trip.
