As much as it sucks, it is good that you are resting it. And I totally hear you on the race hiatus. I am trying desperately to get myself healed up for Chicago but it seems as though I am going through the same injury timing (3 weeks out from race day) as you. Grrrr.<br /><br />Oh wow, it would have been awesome to meet up with you and CB at the PAWS race! But it's definitely safer for you to take things easy (if I hadn't signed up for this race a long time ago, I probably wouldn't be running at all this weekend, myself).<br /><br />And yes, we need to figure out how to meet up at Chicago! I know that Maggie is working on planning a blogger meetup, too. In general, I think that meeting up at the expo will be easier than the race, since the race will probably be complete madness. Let me know when you have an idea of your expo plans!!! =)emmers712https://www.blogger.com/profile/15865493476823978890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081872231855122210.post-47165075623168985322012-09-23T17:21:36.164-05:002012-09-23T17:21:36.164-05:00Yeah, with all of this training I don't know h...Yeah, with all of this training I don't know how much longer I'll be in condition to run long-distance races, either. As much as I dislike winter, it is a really good time to heal ourselves up from all that ails us runners!<br /><br />Chicago Living Bloggers, eh? I'll have to look that up, as well as the Rosehill Cemetary Crypt 5K. The race sounds very interesting and unique!!!emmers712https://www.blogger.com/profile/15865493476823978890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081872231855122210.post-13382308965512706682012-09-22T12:20:44.255-05:002012-09-22T12:20:44.255-05:00Bummer about the mad dash :( next year....
The zo...Bummer about the mad dash :( next year....<br /><br />The zooma race looks nice. I kinda wanted to do it, but now especially with the ankle crap, I'm on a race hiatus. I bet you'd have a fun time there volunteering or hanging out if you didn't run. <br /><br />Good luck tomorrow for the paws race. I really wanted to go up there with CB, but alas it's about 9 miles from my place and I doubt a cab would take us. Plus I'm not going to run until my ankle is better- or I'll run the Chicago marathon. Whichever comes first :)<br /><br />Speaking of which- we need to figure how to meet up at the race and/or expo. We need to get the party started in the 2nd wave!!! :)Xaarlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09103441780159368391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081872231855122210.post-42777689392965501092012-09-21T15:59:49.154-05:002012-09-21T15:59:49.154-05:00Oh man I still really wish I was running the ZOOMA...Oh man I still really wish I was running the ZOOMA half, but I am in no condition to run 13 miles haha. I have a cool race we should do (that I saw on the Chicago Living Bloggers Facebook page): the Rosehill Cemetery Crypt 5K Run & Walk. It's next weekend and it looks so interesting! Eery, creepy, and a very unique experience.

As long as they don't reschedule for the weekend of October 7th. =D<br /><br />Ahhh, dilemmas dilemmas dilemmas with ZOOMA!!! Regardless, thanks for the very welcoming invite! No matter what the final decision ends of being, we'll have to plan other road-trip getaways with the crew. Maybe the Illinois Marathon/Half?!? emmers712https://www.blogger.com/profile/15865493476823978890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081872231855122210.post-4183171044811107872012-09-20T21:08:59.025-05:002012-09-20T21:08:59.025-05:00I look forward to reading thy husband's blog a...I look forward to reading thy husband's blog addressing said NHL lockout!!!

Thanks again for bearing with me during our run this morning, by the way. Today did NOT go down as one of my better runs. =( But here's hoping the next one is better.emmers712https://www.blogger.com/profile/15865493476823978890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081872231855122210.post-58016639147906698952012-09-20T16:03:10.009-05:002012-09-20T16:03:10.009-05:00Aww, bummer that your race is postponed!

That would be awesome if Adam did the 4K with you!<br /><br />You know I totes think you should come to ZOOMA just for a bit to hang out with us and give us our bananas in the schweet outfit... or maybe you want to trun the 5K with Kelsey?!
