Enjoying Running
I'm looking forward eagerly to your thoughts on this one. I find that, like you, I really love having just finished a run or race.

I guess I'm thinking about this a lot at the moment as the countdown to the Chicago marathon continues - 4 days and change at the moment and I'm in DEEP trouble. Why am I doing this again?

I was training fairly well - only missed one long run and that was because I was doing a triathlon the following day (seems reasonable!), but 2 weeks back I caught an achy body/sore throat thing and didn't run for 10 days. Then after the layoff, I did my final long run on Sunday (8 miles) and my thighs still ache two days later. The tendonitis in my ankle isn't totally healed either - apparently (and hilariously to me, a couch potato) it's an overuse injury.

Sunday I plan to have lots of alcohol as a pain killer - assuming I make it to the finish. Smile
