About Me

My photo
I completed my first ING New York City Marathon on November 1st, 2009 in 4 hours 55 minutes and 5 seconds. This will be my fourth marathon and I am going to bust my butt to break 4 hours on November 7th, 2010.

What now?

Well I came down with a bad case of the flu. I have not run since April 8th. I have missed 5 runs total. This includes two long runs specifically the 20 mile run that I have as the most important of the training cycle. I am still pretty sick. I haven't been able to shake either the light headed feeling, or the dizziness when I walk. I am within two weeks of the end of the semester and missed an entire week of class. The pressure right now is pretty tough to deal with. I have two huge projects that are not close to complete. So the weight of it all is tougher and tougher to push through. I am going to attempt to do an easy 2-3 mile jog on Tuesday. It will let me know if there is any chance of me making the starting line, or if I need to find another marathon a few weeks later. Just thought I would give you all an update. Thanks for the support.
