Thinking about doing the half marathon. Never done a half mary before. How is that Jeff Galloway program working out? Just heard about it recently and am thinking about trying it for the half marathon training.

If you just want to finish, or it's your first mary/half mary, or you are prone to injury, I think it's perfect. I doubt seriously if I have enough of a running base to be training for this so the JG program is realistically the best shot I have of finishing a full.
I used it to finish a half mary in 2007 and it worked great. I have chronically weak ankles so it really helped. That half mary was extremely hilly, with more climbing than the Thundedr Road full, and I was slow but finishing was a piece of cake.
Good luck !
