That totally blows! But you have to be smart enough to listen to your own body. Some people don't do that and find themselves in a whole world of hurt later. Take care and feel better! Dang Peter!

Time heals everything, and there's always the next race to win. But I can really relate to just *wanting* to start it off...even when being sicker than a preschool full of flu-attracting children. Feel better, Barbara You certainly made the wise decision. Time heals everything, and there’s always the next race to win.

But I can really relate to just *wanting* to start it off…even when being sicker than a preschool full of flu-attracting children.

Feel better, Barbara

Glad you had fun at your underwear tri -- speaking of which, my organization is throwing a underwear run/walk in LA area early August to raise awareness for "cancers below the waist": http://www.uncoverthecure.org/index.html Ha!

You didn't really have a decision to make. It's enough to put your body through all those running events in a weekend, or to put your body through a tri. These events are supposed to IMPROVE your health. Starting an event sick would be just ludicrous. Of course you did the right thing. I say you should pick another Olympic distance between now and your half (you travel a lot - I'm sure you could do one next weekend) to give you back that confidence before your half IM.
