For the last couple of months, I've been training for run my first full Marathon. The plan was to run one in Harrisburg, PA in November with my Uncle Dan. Until last night, when I got a call from him, telling me he wasn't going to be able to run the marathon. I was pretty upset but understood his reasons.
So now I have a decision to make. I'm still going to run a Marathon this year, it's just a matter of which one I should do. Here are a few options I've found:
1. Still go to Pennsylvania and run the Harrisburg Marathon on November 14th.

2. Find a local race around the same time. (I've found a few in the area.)

I really need to make a decision by September 1, that is when most of the races registration fee goes up. Any suggestions??
You know what my vote is ;-) -- P.S. Since when is Pensacola local?
