Weird, sometimes I wonder what everyone else is thinking at an expo- they are healthy and happy. Though I've missed so many races now due to injury, that I've gained perspective to it - that very likely I'll be back out there sometime. I too have unfinished business with the 2nd half marathon at SF - did 1st half in 2009, full in 2010, then have been injured the past 2 years. <br /><br />And yea, you better have Ninjaed it!Nellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11613262056157769496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8576247921509925121.post-16012401519839112612013-06-17T07:43:47.479-07:002013-06-17T07:43:47.479-07:001.

I thought they did a better job this time of picking the runners to follow -- I remember only liking half of the runners from the first movie.<br /><br />2. You are totally allowed to have a pity party. Especially since you're usually quite practical and focused on taking positive steps, not to mention this was an expensive race AND in your hometown/neighborhood. I was just listening to a podcast with Greg MacMillan where he talked about active rest - taking 1-2 months off from running between training cycles - and how that's really helped the runners he coaches break through plateaus. I know that planning to rest and being forced to rest are two different animals, but maybe you can pretend that you're choosing to rest?

I was really upset when I missed out on races last year. One being pretty expensive. I hope that you can get the chance to run it next year. There is something comforting about running on your home turf. I laughed at your Golden Gate Park comment. Running through that was NOT fun.

When you do get back to running, you'll probably feel different about it, more passionate. That's a pretty cool thing. I predict that this whole thing is going to make you an even stronger runner.<br /><br />That being said, this sucks. I'm sorry it's so hard to deal with.
