You gotta know when to hold 'em,
know when to fold 'em...
know when to fold 'em...
Today I decided I'm not going to run the Philly HM.
I haven't kicked my five week-old cold. The week ended up being jam packed with "emergency" meetings for school, a presentation for my class, night stuff each night. And I haven't run this week...I guess I'm just sick (literally) and tired. And I want to cut my losses now without adding the expenses of staying over in Philly with the family and dragging them down with me.
I am proud that I actually made it through the 10 mile training run. I am actually ok with this decision.
So what next? I will run a Thankgsiving 8K and let my son run their Mile "Romp" on Turkey Day and make a true family affair of it. And now Saturday I can go to Rutgers' last home game this year with my family!
So thanks for the support in my training, I'll be back with some re-focused goals, probably a spring HM. And I'm still running, don't worry:-)

Phew! For a minute there, I was really worried ;-) Smart decision! There will ALWAYS be more races...
we will always have LB :D
yeah for the turkey day idea! family runs are nothing but fun :)
I am so sorry, but I agree with Wes. Smart decision!
We will be here to cheer you when you pick the next race! Better to refresh and rest!
Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do!
Good luck with your 8K this week!
you know what? there will be a MILLION other halfs (halves?) that you can do. Only you know what's best for you, so I totally support your decision!
you'll rock that 8 k, and i hope, be DONE with this cold!
That's a long time to be under the weather. You need to rest. There's always another race. Be well.
Glad you are doing ok. Great job in keeping the big guy in the running. Hope all is well.
