Races leading up to FLM

I've been thinking of incorporating a few races during training for the FLM. At the moment I've been leaning towards:

Canterbury 10 mile (January)

Ashford and District 10k (possibly) (February)

Hastings Half (March)

Obviously it would make more sense to run a 10k in Jan and a 10miler in Feb, but I couldn't find a 10k in the second half of Jan in my area. I've never taken part in a race before so my question is, is this a good itinerary that will complement my training? Should I be racing more or less leading up to the marathon? Thanks for any help.
