The nail in the coffin..... I'm passing on tomorrow's 1/2 marathon.  Unfortunately I had to pay for it way in advance because it sells out quickly.  I had a calf cramp this morning.  There is no way I can get through 13.1 at a decent pace tomorrow.  Either I'd run really slow or hurt myslef trying to race.  Instead, I'll stay at home and watch the Chicago Marathon on the internet.  Back to the drawing board.  I'll start back from scratch and build a new training plan through the winter and find a Spring race to look forward to.
