But it's still no fun! I agree with Darrell. Just keep up your regimen. Rest is good, but for me total rest didn't help. I also found that it got worse before it got better. Take care! I think you can still do it! : )Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10790953201589664954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18177821.post-1163954616918204442006-11-19T11:43:00.000-05:002006-11-19T11:43:00.000-05:00I agree.

The rest helped, and I managed to finish. <BR/>But you are wise to put things in perspective, Joe. We all should:)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18177821.post-1163952399395479982006-11-19T11:06:00.000-05:002006-11-19T11:06:00.000-05:00The rest for the next two weeks seems appropriate....The rest for the next two weeks seems appropriate. The best advice I can give is from a song, it might be scripture as well, but don't quote me. "Have faith in the Lord for he is good." Take care and persevere like you always do Joe.robtherunnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05066981363064781863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18177821.post-1163948061431003652006-11-19T09:54:00.000-05:002006-11-19T09:54:00.000-05:00Man, that's tough.

You already have the endurance to get through 26.2 and speed wasn't the point of this one so things may still be OK.<BR/><BR/>I'm looking forward to the run and we'll take whatever the day brings in stride.Darrellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15217970340507557462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18177821.post-1163916883597035182006-11-19T01:14:00.000-05:002006-11-19T01:14:00.000-05:00Bummer!

Today her knee was bothering her so she taped it up and it helped. It's not the traditional wrap it around kind of taping, but something that runs along ligaments and supports them. I'll try to find out and let you know what it's called, but I probably won't see her till next weekend.Backofpackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13779487553272296752noreply@blogger.com
