Half Marathon?

We want to grow the Reindeer Fun Run each and every year.  In 2010 we added a 10k, the Chick-fil-A Kids Zone and the Blitzen Bash.  In 2011, along with a new location, we are adding on the the after party, tailgating, and more charity fundraising opportunities.  But, we aren't yet satisfied.  So, we're thinking... what about a half-marathon?  We'd love to hear what you think!
