I haven't run since Thursday morning.
I don't feel like I am in very good shape. With this being said, I am looking forward to running 13.1 miles tomorrow. I always look forward to running new routes, sweating, pushing myself. . .this time though it cost me $75.00!
The Health blog on the New York Times said that if you have had ACL surgery and you run that it could take as little as ten years to sideline you forever. I have been running for 7 years. . . .whereas there may be some truth to that (for some people) . . .it only has motivated me to do another marathon, a 50k, a 50 miler and then a 100 miler. I understand that these are just words on a page until I starting crossing these off my list . . . .
Though I have ran in 3 half marathons and have run over 13 miles several times . . . .make no mistake about it . .13.1 miles is a long ways. I ALWAYS respect the distance . .regardless of the distance.
