Re: WHO IS RUNNING
I was going to run the Diva Half but decided to run the Entenmann's Half in Bay Shore instead. It is much cheaper and it is also closer to home. It is the day before the Diva Half.
Anyway, This will be my 1st Half and I plan to use Hal Higdon's 12 week Novice training program. Since its 12 weeks I don't really start the training until next month. For now I am pretty much going to repeat weeks 1 and 2 until next month and then go from there.

Re: WHO IS RUNNING
Ive never ran more than a 10K ... I usually run like 3-4 miles 3x/wk and then a longer one (5-6 miles on Sat or Sunday) .. Should I keep doing that and slowly build up??? or should I start a program now?

Re: WHO IS RUNNING
You have plenty of time to train for Diva. Sounds as if you are doing great so far. My suggestion is to find a good training program (as the previous poster suggested, Hal Higdon is great) and start it in a couple of weeks and you will be set!!

Re: WHO IS RUNNING
I think I'm gonna take the leap and sign up today, it will be mu first and the sooner I sign up the sooner I will get my lazy bum training. I didn't know that the Entenmanns was a half or I would have thought about running that one. I ran their 5k last year and really liked the course, I thought is was just a 5K & 10K- did they change it this year or was I just out of it last year, lol

Re: WHO IS RUNNING
Not sure if I am doing the Diva, Hamptons, or Entenmanns. I trained for the LI Half this spring, got injured and unfortunately couldn't run  , so I def want to try to complete a half this fall. I have to look into each one to see if I can sign up the day of, since I am unsure if my knee is recovered enough to handle the distance.

Re: WHO IS RUNNING

You can sign up for Entenmanns day of. Hamptons will probably sell out before. Diva did not sell out last year, but it was the same weekend as Hamptons, so ny guess is people were split.
