i spoke too soon...

as usual...

after my run today...that was oh...about 5 miles...i realized that this injury is not fixed...and i need to give up on the goal of running the marathon...ended up walking it in...

and i was _very_ jealous of those people you see on the trail who really have no running form what-so-ever...running wicked slow...i was MAD at them cause they were RUNNING and i was not...

this is really hard for me to accept right now...i'll get over it tomorrow...but today is not a good day...

this is the first time that i have signed up for something and not completed it...it makes me feel like a complete failure...and this is hard for me to come to terms with...because as we all know failure is not in the vocabulary of a perfectionist...

so today is what it is...tomorrow is another day

Jess,
It's not a failure of you, but a health problem that needs to be addressed so you can then move forward. Channel your determination to get better.
There are many more goals out there waiting for you.
