Might as well at least wait til the RnR in San Diego if you wont wait til fall.
Am I *completely* misleading myself? So, with this in mind, and now that you can see I am stubborn and committed to not missing my chance at doing something I never imagined myself doing, where are my fellow RA'ers who have done such crazy things?
. However, I'm running it because I realize it is pretty much my one shot at completing a marathon. Your one shot? I guess if you feel you must than do it. How will you feel if you got a DNF? Just curious as that is a possibility. 26.2 is not 13.1. and your still young with plenty of time ( I didn't run my first marathon until i was 36 ) Just my 2cents worth

Why is it sideways?
Do it. I've never regretted jumping into a race. Even when it took me two hours to jog/walk/crawl the last six miles of a 50k. In fact, that turned out to be one of my most memorable races--and made me go back and do it right. Injuries heal. Glory is forever.
