Keep on Waiting

Ok... So here I go again with the marathon tug of war.  It is always easier to say you are going to do it when everything is feeling good and the workout was right on pace the day before.  What keeps me in check is the fact that I don't have someone at least near my marathon training pace to do those long tempo runs with.  Well... and a few other factors.

Does anyone have a magic wand or a crystal ball to tell me that I won't run it injured on May 26th or the weather won't be too hot in hills coming down from Ojai for little ole me?  Will  I be able to walk again after 26.2 of mostly down hill?  Make it stop!  This tug of war is so tiring.


Do I risk it and keep on waiting?  Hmmmmmmmmmmmm... I think yes.  Yes, I keep waiting that is.  Maybe it will fill up and then the choice will be made for me.
