10K
Anyone think I'm crazy for running a 10K the day before my BA/BL and LBL? I asked my PS and he gave his blessing as long as I stay hydrated. My family thinks I'm crazy. I think if I don't run one the day before it won't happen this year and really want to cross a10k off my list. So, what do you think...am I crazy? I've been running 3-4 days a week since Jan.

I don't think it's crazy at all, especially if you're passionate about it!! Think about it, lots of people have a "last supper" before RNY, the new you is doing this instead, that's a HUGE accomplishment right there! I went skydiving right before mine. It's less active, but I did it for the same reasons. Good Luck!
Thanks for all the support! I'm going for it! I had to laugh at the last supper comparison....so true, I had a last supper before my pre-op diet started. Love how my priorities have changed...
