Can't Say No

I thought maybe I could take a month or so off from running to give myself a nice long rest before getting ready for the Ultrasport which looms large only 5 months away now, but after just 10 days I'm itching to run again. And it's much more than just a casual itch to get out every now and then, but instead I feel renewed and wanting to run far and fast again.

I did a nice 11 mile trail run yesterday and by the end of the run I had made up my mind that I would jump right back into racing. And by this I don't mean next month or in a couple months, but rather next weekend.

Today though I woke up with a very sore throat and a looming sinus head cold which will likely force me to lay low for the next two or three days. I'm not sure yet if this means I won't race next weekend, this is something I'll decide on by early in the week. Ideally I would like to get out for a 25-30 miler on Sunday or Monday but this illness might not allow for that. I guess I'll just have to see how it progresses.

I really want to race next weekend though. I'm currently in a very indecisive and confused place in my mind and it would be really nice to have something in line that I could focus specifically on for the next week and hopefully I'd be able to use some of the time in this race to make some of the decisions that I currently need to make... Not to mention that I'd be stoked to get back out on trails in the mountains for another 20 hour jaunt next weekend. We'll see.

Belated congrats on your win at Wasatch 100! I have been off line for the last three weeks, and was excited to catch up on your blog!
You are an inspiration. I see you are looking for other places to call home in the future. Leadville, CO, Boise, ID or Bozeman, MT would all suit you well, but know that you will be missed in the last frontier.
