Default Good target Half-Marathon?

I'm looking to use the FIRST half-marathon program to get back up to running halfs. I'm looking at goal races, and both these look good:

Southern California Half Marathon & 5K in Huntington Beach, CA

Carlsbad Marathon & Half Marathon in Carlsbad, CA

The only real difference is that the Carlsbad one is much closer to where I live, and will cost more. And Carlsbad is two weeks after the Irvine (not Huntington Beach as the title says) one. So, which one to choose?
