I did 4 miles this morning and I shouldn't have. I could feel that pain in my groin with every step. So, I came home, called Urgent Care, and went down there mostly to get a scrip for PT which I did. I will call them first thing Monday and get in as soon and as often as I can.
So I will not be doing 18 or anything on Monday. I am so filled with doubts about this now. But Angie doesn't think we should cancel which I was all set to do this morning. They will charge my card on Tuesday the 15th so Monday is the last day to decide. I hate to spend all that money if I can't do it. I won't even want to go up there if I can't run.
I took an Aleve when I got home from the clinic though and the leg hasn't really bothered me ever since. So, maybe if I just keep myself drugged up I can do it! I could start packing away some of Mom's oxycodone!
That's my tale of woe.

That's a serious tale of woe. I am very sorry to hear it. And I'm with you about not wanting to go up if we're not running it. Man, tough decision. Should we push till next year? Find a different race to run in September? I don't know.
At least we won't be stressed anymore when Tuesday comes around. One way or another.
Pain meds will be our best tool!
I'm planning on doing a long run tomorrow. As long as I can. But you know the 12 mile run took all I had. So we shall see what tomorrow brings.
Good luck today.
I am so conflicted about this now. I just don't know what to do. Angie thinks I will be able to do it and that we should go and do the best we can. I want to do it. Very badly. But if I can't.... And these damn motels are taking such advantage of people it makes me sick. Jacking their prices way up and requiring a two night stay. It's terrible and if we go and do this it will be the last time up there for me. There are other races in other places that are a lot less expensive than this one because of the motels.
I've taken a Aleve this morning.
Good luck on your run today!
