Remember, better 10% undertrained than 10% overtrained. There's a lot of time between now and Boston. A couple of missed workouts, even long runs, aren't going to make or break anything at this point...but an injury will. Oh, and I'll definitely be back at WIBA next year. Already looking forward to it!
My first thought with lower leg pain is, "how many miles on my running shoes?" They add up quick! There is plenty of time until the Columbus race and plenty more until Boston....
Do what you can to help heal the pain and try running on trails, or treadmill and maybe use differnet shoes (or no shoes). Good luck with your training.
Take it easy and don't beat yourself up! You don't have to go hard every week. Especially if you have pain. Good for you for listening to your body.
Al,THanks I still have no idea how much that is. But man 10,000 feet sounds a lot :). A lot of fun :D
