Missing and out of Action

While running was something I craved for so long, recently I have found it to be little more than a chore.  I guess that is what the road to recovery looks like after an injury that doesn't ever seem to give in.  Maybe someday I will relive through words all I have been through these past months but for now I want to focus mainly on what the future holds.

The decline started well before the debilitating injury and so I have had to sit out two big races that were previously on my schedule.  Some of that has been chronicled here on the site, but honestly, I find it difficult to write about running when I can't lace the shoes up and feel the wind in my hair and the bugs in my teeth.  The 13.1 Atlanta was the first of those, while the second was the Publix Georgia Marathon.

The One Month Countdown

I really wish I could be one of the ones that was nearing the taper, but The Publix Georgia Marathon was not in the cards for me once again this year.  A bum calf has played it’s part with keeping me off of the roads and trails, and also from the starting line this coming March 18th when thousands of runners line the streets of Atlanta.

If you thought that it was all about the marathon you would be mostly right, but in case you were not aware, there is a lot more than just an enjoyable 26.2 mile stroll through the streets of Atlanta.

Free Race Entry for the Publix Georgia Marathon



We are just one month away from the Publix Georgia Marathon and just a few short days away from the bitter sweet taper for many would be marathoners.  Race day may be getting close, but there is still a chance to get in on the big day whether it be by hitting the Publix Georgia Marathon Registration Page before the next price increase on February 16th, or by winning the chance to run for free.

If you have not yet registered you can take advantage of the price before it increases in just a couple days, but don’t forget to use the discount code: 262QUEST to receive an additional $10 off the current race entry fees.
