Well, I took the plunge and registered for the lottery to run the Nike Women's Marathon!

Runners are selected by a random drawing, so I am hoping I get in and can run my first marathon, in what looks to be a really fun race geared for women. I registered with a group of ladies from the Little Apple Road Runners (a running club here in Manhattan which I have become a part of in the last year) so we will all get in and be able to go to San Francisco and run together! If I don't get in, I will probably try to find another marathon around the same time-frame (early fall). I should find out by the end of the month, so I will keep everyone posted!
In the meantime, I have been checking out half-marathons in the area and working on training. Right now I haven't signed up for one yet, but I am looking at the Lincoln Nebraska race the first weekend in May.
