Many of us are in that same boat. About two weeks ago I did 23.2 miles on the treadmill and did a few miles the days following and sadly nothing since. I ended up coming down with something...headache and sinus problems...its a norm for me when weather changes...and my headaches can turn to migranes so I have to be careful. My big goal was to do 13 miles this past Sunday which never happened. I still feel terribly under the weather...second time this has happened to me since November. I am prone to this I guess...however I would rather deal with it now then in January.
In the meantime the goal is to do another 13 miles tomorrow I hope!
My friend is doing the Goofy and she is getting scared...she feels she isn't even doing close to what she wanted to do..for various reasons.
So many of us are in the same boat.
Here is the thing..safety is number one...the goal is to finish in an upright position injury free.
I think we will all be fine.
I am oddly comforted in hearing that I am not alone. I had a bad episode of achilles tendinitis on Thanksgiving weekend when I was planning a 5,10, 20 mile back to back to back. My ortho prescribed intense PT and he cleared me to run last week. Last Saturday I successfully completed 21 miles and was feeling great-actually very strong with no real aches or pains. Then I started getting pain in my navicular bone on my right foot on Christmas. I now fear I have a stress fracture from that long run after a period of not running for almost 6 weeks. I was going to go out for 8 today, but I am resting my foot. I won't see my ortho again till after the race. I am too afraid to find or confirm any more issues.
It will be a miracle if I make it to the finish on Sunday.
