Always so helpful when I go in. <br /><br />I've never withdrawn for a race, but for a race this big, if you don't feel ready, I wouldn't blame you. It's not something you can muddle through---or can you? Only you can decide..but whatever you decide will be the right decision.sugarmagnolia70http://sugarmagnolia70.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8909813619387077142.post-76444844579719018522012-06-06T18:24:18.469-06:002012-06-06T18:24:18.469-06:00Hey girl...
Just getting back from California and ...Hey girl...<br />Just getting back from California and catching up.<br /><br />Sorry you've had a chest cold for over 2 weeks, that sucks and really makes it tough to get out there and tearing up the road when you feel like crud. Hope that stuff vacates here soon!<br /><br />I've had to eat the cost of so many races in 2010 and 2011 with my foot and it's not fun, and so hard to swallow the costs, but it just wasn't going to do me any good to run it when I couldn't. I'm about 99.9% I'm not doing PP either as I just can't get in the training I need to to be ready. So I hear and understand your cries. These things happen and it's just part of this game, unfortunately. We're not paid athletes and these races are our jobs....we have lives and sometimes life gets in the way of what we hope to accomplish...that's just how it goes. There's other races, if that's where you heart takes you. Listen to the inner-Julie and if it's not right, then who cares, pull out and you and I'll go on a long bike ride and you can kick my sorry biking butt! :)<br /><br />Oh I am green with envy over the Kinvara 3s. I so want to try those!!!! I just got the new Brooks PureFlows in white and purple and I wore them for the first time in San Diego...ugh, I should know better than to wear new shoes never worn for a half marathon. Hahah.<br /><br />Let's get together soon. I'll email you!!<br /><br />xoJillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10174883718651790845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8909813619387077142.post-35437798488138615962012-06-06T10:11:32.563-06:002012-06-06T10:11:32.563-06:00It sounds like you heart isn't in it and you w...It sounds like you heart isn't in it and you would be doing it just to "save" the money. However, if it's just going to be a sufferfest and you won't have any fun doing it - I'd say pull out. You have completed triathlons before - you have nothing to prove. Focus on your back-to-back races and having fun at them. :)brghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07299658617359329649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8909813619387077142.post-71670508829813882092012-06-06T08:42:19.017-06:002012-06-06T08:42:19.017-06:00First I absolutely love Road Runner Sports!!

I just ordered a new pair of Newtons and they are expensive, but what better way to try them out and have options if they don't work out.<br /><br />On the 70.3, I agree it's tough, but you have to make the right decision for you. If you aren't feeling up for it, and family time is important right now, than maybe it's waht you need to do. You just need to weigh how disappointed you'll be come race day if you don't do it. The good thing is I pulled out of a race last year that I was sooooo ready for due to my shoulder injury and I was devastated because I had put all the time in, at least so far you haven't put as much training into and aren't being forced to pull out. I think it's a little easier when you are in control of the situation. Best of luck with your decision.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17584071206419891364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8909813619387077142.post-79973872478332617962012-06-06T06:15:30.685-06:002012-06-06T06:15:30.685-06:00Personally, I still think you have time to train f...Personally, I still think you have time to train for it, yes its going to hurt, it was going to hurt anyways.

You've got to lo...Grrr ... touch choices here. <br />You've got to look after yourself and decide what the race means to you. Just to get through it or to be able to give it all you have?Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15746127583914380279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8909813619387077142.post-58087514388092831312012-06-05T22:46:14.643-06:002012-06-05T22:46:14.643-06:00I've never pulled out of a race - do date anyw...I've never pulled out of a race - do date anyway, although lots of people on my squad have with illness etc etc. <br /><br />You're already looking at the situation in a very realistic way - are you going to be able to put in enough to get to the race? If you don't put in enough, will you be happy with the result?<br /><br />Sometimes just writing down the pros and cons can make the decision a bit easier. Plus it already sounds like you've got a couple of other cracking race options to look to instead. <br /><br />Do what is best for you, not anyone else. No one will think less or more of you.Bronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17918419392714537159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8909813619387077142.post-40593180882558807772012-06-05T20:36:54.578-06:002012-06-05T20:36:54.578-06:00I have pulled out of several races recently--I kno...I have pulled out of several races recently--I know how hard it is, and not just from a financial point of view! But the reality is, you know yourself and it could be that for you (like for me) this just isn't your time. Sometimes the priorities just have to lie elsewhere (even when you've shelled out a lot of bucks).<br /><br />My only regret is that I was looking forward to coming out to cheer for you at the 70.3! Next year!!Terzahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10617301871875902162noreply@blogger.com
