I have decided since my doctor said I cannot run this weekend due to my knees I will walk the Frosty 5 Mile race tomorrow. I know this will actually be hard for me due to my competitive nature and that letting everyone go ahead of me or around me will drive me crazy but I listen to my doctors so I will make myself walk. Does this make me less of a runner? Or am I just counted as a runner on rest? Or...and this is what I think....do labels make me who I am or do I make me who I am? I think it is the latter. I am just going to be happy to be out there with my friends who I have not really run with for two weeks or so and who I miss like mad. And I can have time to take pictures of my fellow racers, maybe some nature pics for my blog, just enjoy the scenery and remember that walking is good too. And I will be grateful to spend my Saturday morning out in the woods.
Good Luck to All The Frosty 5 Mile Racers!! I will be there cheering you on!!!
