I am injured and I am hoping it is temporary.
In May I registered to run my first ever half marathon. I have been running with this goal in mind for almost six months...more than half of little Elena's life. I have been training for the half since mid September. I have sacrificed sleep, energy, and time. I am healthier, stronger, and faster than I have ever been in my life. Now, I am injured.
The top of my foot starting hurting during the last mile of my 10 mile run on Saturday. I did not run on Sunday and babied my foot all day. I tried to run this morning and my foot hurt as soon as I put on my shoe. I took three steps down the street and came home. Frustration....
I went to the running store today and talked with a very helpful woman and bought new shoes. I am praying this helps and I am back to normal in a few days. The half is November 20th.
I have struggled with my desire to run. Is it the right thing for me and my family at this time in our life? I pray about this everyday. I have faith that it is the right path for me. I hope this is not God's answer to the contrary.
I guess I keep praying....
