Weather, Injury and Race Goals



It rained all last weekend and most of this week (except today.) The forecast for this weekend is no better.

Normally, I would be so annoyed … especially since I never run in the rain.  But it has actually been a blessing.  I was not tempted to run.  I rested Wed & Thurs and normally I would have run 3 miles each day.

Today my foot feels much better…maybe because I have not run on it.

I am still on the fence about tomorrow’s race (it is supposed to be rainy and cold!).  But most likely, I will do it. (I joined a team and I am meeting a friend there.)

At this point in my ankle recovery, I would have hoped to run faster… to finish under 30 minutes, etc.

Now with my new injury, I am hoping to run it without pain, not to aggravate my right foot so I can continue my running next week and after that.

So we’ll see how it goes.

Happy Running!  Any racing this weekend?  Good luck to all those SRMs running in the Mohawk Hudson Marathon or Half Marathon on Sunday!!!
