Hope you are feeling better soon! Sorry you couldn’t run your race, but I think you made a wise decision.

I wouldn’t get too hung up on it – sounds like you definitely made the right decision.

Sorry to hear about your DNS, but I think you are making the right decision. There will be plenty more races, and that Auckland Marathon sounds awesome! Also, thanks for your question on my last post. My resting heart rate, as far as I can tell, is 45bpm. You’ve motivated me to check again and I will be doing so for the next little while every morning (if I can remember!).

Good luck to your wife on her race!

It is surprisingly hard isn’t it, to decide to be a DNS. I’ve had a couple of races where I’ve thought I shouldn’t run, due to knee/calf issues though not flu. I’ve always started, and they’ve always been terrible runs. I’d say you’ve made the right choice. Live to fight stronger another day!

Probably the best decision and one I’m sure you didn’t make lightly. Hope you feel better soon!

Hang in there. I’ve had one DNS before — worst feeling of my running career to miss a race I had signed up for. But NEVER run when you’re sick — it’ll only make it worse!

Sorry to hear that you’re missing the race, but there’s something to be said for showing that you’re not obsessed. I know several people what will run a race, no matter their condition. I’ve seen them hurling on the sidelines from it, too.

Good call.

Hope you are feeling better soon! Not the best sort of weather to be out and about in if you are sick.
