WTF?!

so last weekend paul got a cold...not really a cold...just a sore throat, stuffy nose but not a full on cold. well, i kissed him. i tried not to, but out of habit, i forgot and kissed him. so now i have a scratchy throat. and i have a half marathon to run on saturday. it's called the slackers half marathon. i've been training for 3 months and i'm so excited to be doing this. i have already run a marathon, but because we are trying to make a baby, i don't want to sign up, put in the training and then the week before the marathon find out that i'm pregnant. i know, i know, i could still run it if i've been running up to that point BUT for those of you who have never had a miscarriage i'll explain: if anything happens, you always think it's your fault. so even if i got pregnant with a baby with 4 heads and no legs and it miscarried because of it's own genetic weirdness, i would still question myself that it was my fault for continuing to run. and then i would imagine myself with a 4 headed, no legged baby and how much i would have loved it and all of its 4 heads. so...all this vent to say i'm as excited about this half marathon as i would be about a full marathon because for now, it's all i can get. and because i've done all of this training on my own, no running group or support...all me. so if i still have a scratchy throat and i'm miserable stuffy  nosed i'm going to be pissed. not at paul, persay, just pissed because i really want to run a good race. i'm hoping for faster than 2:00:20 because that was my time of my last half marathon. that was a couple years ago when i was training for my full marathon. i'll keep you posted.
