Your instincts on these things are always right and I beleive you should ALWAYS listen to them. It is your bodies way of protecting you from harm or injury. I bet if you had run, you would have gotten really hurt and might have had to stop running all together. So, pat yourself on the back for being one of the few lucky people to actually listen to themselves. You did the right thing Peter, as hard as it was to do.

I hope you're having fun, out there! Oh, come on, Peter— If I can participate (by following a running friend’s progress online!), surely you could!

So I know it's not the same, but I do know how you're feeling right now. Hopefully 2010 will be both our years... Have fun this weekend. I'm sticking around here to watch and be supportive but I won't lie, it is tough!! But that which does not kill you... :) I learned the hard way this past Sunday at MCM-sometimes the “right” decision can hurt big time.

Don't sweat it, though. While running the marathon is a big deal, that feeling of bigness peters out about two days after the race. I hope next year's marathon or an Ironman works out for you. And if not, no regrets. Have fun, stay fit, get out there and do what feels right! Great post, Peter. Don’t sweat it, though.
