Running Lesson #947!
When living in Arizona, DON'T register for a September 1/2 marathon. Training sucks!!!
In all seriousness though, as rough as it has been, I am really looking forward to this next race, the Disneyland 1/2 Marathon Labor Day weekend!!
This was my goal race when I had my surgery and my whole family (mom, dad, sisters and one brother in law) are all running it with me! Little did I know the running bug would hit hard and I would have already done 2 1/2 marathons before this race, but still I am excited! However, the heat and humidity suck no matter how early I get up to do it.

i'm beating myself up for doing a 1/2 in October! We've been brutalized here in Boston all summer. Thankfully I'm still 11 weeks out, but it's been a crap summer for running outside with asthma!
YAY for your excitement! How great to have so many people joining you in the race!

Hmm - I have that as # 822. 
Well, if it's a hot race day, you will be really prepared.
It is amazing how much it really does affect a run. Might as well try running while breathing through a straw as people punch you in the legs.
You are almost there so keep on trucking. Once you tough it out, you will be ready for the big race.
