the good, the bad, and the...

the bad news is that I am in absolutely no condition to run a marathon. I know I could cover the distance walking, but that would take me half a day. Good news is that the marathon people say I can change my registration to the half-marathon. I'm not in shape to run a half-marathon either, but I did complete a 15k trail run 3 weeks ago on a much more difficult course. So while I know I'll be one of the last participants to finish (which is usually the case anyway) and there will be quite a few runners who finish the marathon before I finish the half, at least I know I can finish well before lunch (7am race start) and I'll still be able to walk the next day. And I'm looking forward to the trip.
