Bummer

Well, as it turns out, I've been instructed to "cool it" on the training. I've recently discovered some health issues and am no longer able to compete in the half marathon. I can't believe I have come this far and am stopped at the gate.
To be honest, before I found out I had health issues, I emailed Reid and Heather telling them that I wouldn't be able to run. Not because of health issues but because the timing was off. As most of you know, I moved in May and am getting married in August. My days and nights are filled to the brim with wedding plans. Thank god I don't have to plan a wedding ever again. It's awful.

Anywho, I quit, then I was told to quit. It's pretty ironic. All I was looking for was an excuse to quit. Now that I have it, I don't want it. I want to run and I want to finish.

I suppose I should be proud of myself for going this far. I ran over 10 miles! That's got to account for something, right?

I do have future plans to run a 7.5 mile run with Heather next year. She said people dress up in costumes. She shouldn't have told me that. I have a pregnant nun costume. I'm going to buy her a priest costume and we'll run like the irreverent sinners that we are...okay, maybe that's just me...

So until my next run, I'm going to have to figure out something to blog about...

Any suggestions? Anything other than wedding BS.

  1. I'm so jealous that you were even training for a half marathon. That's pretty much my dream, and I wish I had trainers to help me... Also, I think you should blog about the camel's toe at The Luxor.
