New York Half or not, stay tuned

A friend who is living near New York for the summer contacted me today about the New York Half Marathon on Sunday, August 5, 2007. The deadline to enter the lottery is today. If I don't get in, they won't charge me and if I do get in, I'm free that weekend. So, what the heck, I entered the lottery. Should know next week if I'm in. Training for a half-marathon during June and July in Hot-lanta. What could be better?
