I’m sorry the race didn’t go well. You had nice even miles up until the pain threw you for a loop. I hope you can find a solution for the future.
Sorry you didn't have the day you were hoping for. Injury aside, it sounds like you were heading in the right direction all race. I think it's worth another shot when the time comes.
Sorry you succumbed to the dreaded IT Band issue. Heat and humidity combine to really wreak havoc with bodies. I think the older we get, the less bandwidth we have to cope. Hope you recover well,
Sorry you had to DNF. You should definitely be proud of your training. The weather this weekend was brutal. :/
Well, that sucks. Hope you're feeling better now and find a solution.
I'm also in the camp of needing to spend time doing ALL the things and not just running to keep my body healthy.
Thanks everyone!
I'm pretty sure I'm gonna give it another shot next year. But I think I'm going to train for the Forgotten Florida 50 miler. It's on actual trails and would probably be easier on my joints. It is also close enough that I can practice on the actual trail. We'll see.
Donna is thinking about giving a marathon a try. If she decides to go with that, I'm going to need another complicated running plan!
