I just signed up for the full marathon...my first.  I guess if IM is in my site I need to test myself at that distance.  Anyone else signing up?

That'll be my first full marathon, too! I did the half this year and it was a really fun race. I'm looking forward to the full.

I'll probably do the half marathon again this year as I have done it for the past two years. I'll be running a full marathon on January 3rd with a bunch of friends so I don't think I'll be quite up for another full that soon!

I'll be out for either the full or the half. Done the full twice now. 2009 they have ING less than a month out from Boston so I doubt I can swing the full. Of course I might be too poor to go to Boston so I might be doing the full anyway. Ever the hometown girl. Sigh.

Just run a lot of hills in training and you will have a great race.

I'm definitely in for the half and maybe the full if I don't injure myself training for and running Kiawah in December.

I'll probably do the half. By then. I'll be focused on Tri training and I don't want to throw a full marathon in the middle of tri training.

THis will be my 3rd time doing the half. Boston right after so its a nice tune up. Also got to see the women's marathon olympic champ warming up if im not mistaken. I registered already. Its been pretty cool Atlanta experience both times. They worked out the kinks the second go around.

I'm in for the Full. Will be my 3rd ING full. Really enjoyed both, but especially last year. Tough course, so be prepared to do some honest training. In the end, it all pays off and sets you up well for Tri season. Especially from a running perspective.

 I agree.  I think the training for this race and the race has had the biggest impact on my season.  I came out of the winter with a strong running base that has allowed me to concentrate more on cycling now that the weather is warm.
