Happy hump day lovelies!

We're half way through the week and that's always good news!

Thank you so much to everyone who shared their opinion on whether I should register for the Baltimore Marathon or the Marine Corp Marathon. I haven't made a definite decision one way or the other yet, but you all gave me a lot to think about.

But I did decide to register for the Frederick Half Marathon yesterday.


With training going so well for the Cherry Blossom 10 Miler in a couple of weeks, I figured I was ready to get my first half marathon of the season on my calendar.

The Frederick race is on May 2 and I am so excited for it.

I am not however, excited for the 6:30 a.m. start time. Yikes! That means I'll probably need to leave my house at 4:30 a.m. to get there, find parking, find the porta-potties and be ready to go.

Have you ever run a race that started so early? What is your advice on getting up and out the door on time?
