That's how many miles I ran total for my training to do the half marathon before I decided it wouldn't be a good idea to do it due to injuries (patella tendinitis and the incident at the pool). I hate quiting things. I never have been one to give up but my body is telling me otherwise. My knees just can't hack it. So I am gracefully bowing out. Dang it!!!!!!
Training for this half has been a great distraction though. Since the miscarriage Mother's day weekend, I thought it would be a great thing to do to pass the time until I got the ok from my doctor to start trying again. So I think this marathon served its purpose for me. It was a great distraction but now it's time to move on and hopfully be pregnant soon...and another plus, it helped me lose the 10 lbs I wanted before getting prego again.
It was fun while it lasted...better luck next year. And hey, I've passed on my love of running to a dear friend. So Lynette, good luck in the race and kick butt for me. I'll be cheering for you on the sidelines :)

I am so sorry to hear you will not be able to run after all but on the bright side you are a better person for going through the training. Now on to more exciting things (such as a cute baby and a wonderful trip!) and like you said there will always be next year :)
