Good job on the toughman guys..  really impressive stuff.  Maybe I can join in next year.  There is a half marathon in Jersey City on 9/23/2012.  Just figured I would throw it out there since its obvious you guys can do it.  I am off and it might be a game day decision for me but I think I would like to try it.

I'll be running this one with Ned. It's his first half and I'm going to pace him and keep him company.  It's a nice and flat course with some good views.  Bring sunblock, there is absolutely no shade downtown on the waterfront and in Liberty Park.

Eddie, here's the site with the info...

I really want to do it.  My normal runs are between 8-8.5 with the Bayonne bridge in between.  I also did that relay with two 8's..  I just don't know if I can do 13 straight.

If you stay within your means and run at a mild pace you'll finish, no doubt about it.  The trick is to enjoy your first half.  Don't push to hard and use it as a gauge for future races.

If you've run 8, you won't have any problems with 13 if you go at an easier pace.
