I just sent in my request to have my race registration changed from the half to the 10k.
I know I COULD do the half, but then I'd risk actually damaging my knee/hip.
I'm sad and disappointed.
Hopefully I'll get stronger and will be able to run a half in a few months... maybe the Hypothermic Half in Feb/March.
Another thing that I'm sad and disappointed about is that I called the Salvation Army so I could volunteer with the soup kitchen or food bank, and they have no openings until late November! Which is great, for them, that they aren't wanting for volunteers, but I really wanted to get in there.
You did the smart thing...and now that the stress is off trying to increase mileage and such, you'll find that you actually enjoy the running a bit more...at least I did.
ReplyDeleteI know it was the right thing to do, but it still sucks! LOL
DeleteHey Erin,
ReplyDeleteYou'll get your 1/2 in I'm certain of it. Possibly the Bluenose??? :) I hope I see you at PEI. I'll definitely be wearing some flashy socks so keep an eye out for me! LOL.
