Newport Marathon Announcement

After getting my knee looked at, it was advised that running the marathon in Providence so early with it being in recovery(active) probably wouldn't be the best option for me. Rather then risk injuring myself permanently it saddens me to say that I will be pushing out the marathon until  OCTOBER 17, 2010...It will still be in the state of Rhode Island except it will be in NEWPORT instead.  I will be signing up for this marathon MAY 15, 2010 and it will be a done deal. I am VERY VERY VERY sad to have trained all this time and have to switch the date...buuuttt at the same time it's only 20weeks and my knee has been feeling better since I have been resting it...

I was so upset about this and was telling my brother how I trained all this time and now there is no end goal. He said "No training is ever done in vain"...I am just bummed because I was looking forward to it.  On the brighter note Newport is BEAUTIFUL and I am looking forward that part of it.

Now to the workout part of the day! What I LOVE about Crossfit is that EVERYDAY is different and EVERYDAY is challenging! i am EXHAUSTED every single workout.
