October 8th Today was supposed to be 19 miles. Good news is we got a little rain this morning. The bad news is it hit right as I was leaving the house. With wet streets, and being dark when I left the house I decided it best to not leave the neighborhood I didn’t want to risk some crazy driver hydroplaning and knocking me off the road. I’m glad I made this decision. Close to 10 miles my shoes, and socks were soaking wet. My feet were killing me. I knew that I had gone too far, and for the sake of my feet had to call it quits. My long runs just don’t seem to happen. A few weeks ago I stayed up way to late, and by the time I got up it was too hot to get a long run, and now this. I have two weeks till the monumental make or break 20 mile run is supposed to happen, and I really don’t know if I’m ready. This is not going the way the plan tells me. Weekly mileage is not where it should be. Can I really overcome these setbacks? I just don’t know. I’m not giving up, but I sure have my doubts.
