Hey LLB!

I haven't been here much either - full time job + full time puppy + full time husband.

I think just working towards a goal is good! If you race, great. If you don't race, great. You've had all of that training behind you!

Covert Bailey says that people who train for a marathon and never run it are much healthier than those who run it. People who actually run it (according to his research) come down with more colds, etc., after the event.
