What I should be doing tonight....

Tonight, I should be carb loading, hydrating, resting and laying out my new running skirt for tomorrow's race. Unfortunately, I won't be doing any of this. I hurt my Achilles and after a painful 10 mile run last week, I came to the realization that I won't be able to run the inaugural Seattle Rock 'n Roll half marathon.

So instead of doing the preparations listed above, I think I'll relax and drink wine with Mr. PaperCourt. And I'll think good thoughts for the other 24,999 people who are running tomorrow. Go runners!!!

  2. Oh I'm sorry! Hope it improves soon, does it take a few days?

    I used to be a runner too, just for exercise, no activities. The rush is addictive. So freeing and you can't really replicate uneven terrain on a treadmill.
