Well, this would work.
I registered for this half marathon even before I ran the Sarasota Half in March…even before I knew than I could ever run 13.1 miles again. (It always sells out right away.)
The race is local. Last year I watched with a stress fracture and vowed to run it this year.
The course is also where I do my long runs.
I will know so many runners at the race.
After I finished the Sarasota Half, I decided that I wanted to do better.
Well, guess what? Another injury and it would be dumb to do this race. Right?
I usually train for a half for 12 weeks. That means running 3 miles comfortably by July 22 to start the PLAN.
It is July 12 and I still have a broken foot. So I obviously cannot do that.
I want to run it well. I do not want to get injured.
So…… I should not run it this year.
Or maybe I’ll walk it??
Decisions…Decisions!
Time will tell…. (If you know me at all, you know that if there is any way I can do this race, I will….)
Happy Running? Ever have the “Should I do it dilemma”?





If your foot is healed, what about doing the race with intervals – that way your less than optimal training time won’t seem so bad, and it might be better for your foot, too?
