Winter Marathons

It's only June (well almost July) and Matt and I are already looking ahead to Winter. I have a requirement to leave the cold and snow at least once to keep my sanity each Winter. Since we have a big trip planned for the Fall to Europe, a big Winter vacation is probably not in the plans. Instead we're looking at a long weekend around a warm weather marathon.
The plan is to go sometime in January or February to give Matt enough time to recover from TCM and be ready for his 3rd marathon and me be ready for my 13th marathon. Hoping for lucky #13.
We're open to anything with warmer weather and vacation spot for a few days, but are thinking about New Orleans Mardi Gras Marathon http://www.mardigrasmarathon.com/
or Birmingham Mercedes Marathon http://www.mercedesmarathon.com/ The finisher's medal is a Mercedes Hood Ornament which Matt thinks is just hilarious.
As I am typing I just came across another possibility First Light Marathon in Mobile http://www.firstlightmarathon.com/default.htm Might be appropriate since that is the location of my grad school which I have never actually seen.
