I'm finally getting some answers about what happened to me during the 1/2 ironman. It is called "runner's colitis". It is most always seen only in women. They think it happen... read more

Oh no, I'm sorry! Please let us know what your doctor says about keeping cool. Take it slow.

Arleen and Georgette's suggestions are great ones! Heat is a huge problem for me, so on hot days I usually carry a water bottle and squirt water on my head every few minutes.....as far as the negativity goes, ignore it! Use what happened as a learning experience and find ways to make it never happen again. It means you'll have overcome an obstacle and grown as an endurance athlete and person in ways that the people throwing negativity your way will never understand.

You and a few others on dailymile inspire me when I'm questioning my sanity. Not everybody appreciates intensity. Your hard work is obviously having a profoundly positive impact on those kids of yours. Keep up the good work. Get better. I guarantee there's somebody else on here having a similar problem, and your solution will shorten the path to their solution.

walk
tired TM 2.06 mi 00:27 13:06 pace
tried walking on the treadmill. Legs and groin said HELL NO!!! guess a swim was a stupid idea too....I'll rest a little longer. UG!

Don't push that groin. Now is the time to recover and heal up. Its a long summer coming and you want to be healthy for it. Maybe swimming with that buoy so you can't use your groin/legs. If needed. Go for a walk.

Nice pictures :) A swim sounds like a better idea to me than treadmill - you would feel so relaxed afterward doing some chill strokes in the water...

the race was in Ocala florida....it was warm for there as well. I also found out yesterday that the humidity was 100%...I'm not sure what else I could have done to train for this race unless I put my treadmill in a sauna....LOL. Well it's done now. Now to find a 1/2 IM course to take my revenge out on. OMG! of course on the run I was thinking.....I'm NEVER doing this again. and so it begins.

You don't have to speed-race it if you don't want. Just plow thru & get it accomplished if your injury impedes you.

thank you guys for your words of support. I think it will be fun to try some new stuff. The running keeps me pretty injuried so I'm trying to stay away from that. Looking forward to trying bootcamp. that should kick my butt! I'm very blessed to have wonderful family, friends, and cyber workout buddies! Big hugs to all you guys!!!
@Gail...Renee is the BOMB! we've know each other for years. She is just one of the best people you will ever know. love her!

CJ- So sorry to hear about your friend. I have been wondering where you have been. I think most of us feel that way after a big race that we train for so hard and so long for. I agree give yourself a break and do what you love. All the exercise in the world isn't worth it if you don't enjoy it. Try many different things, enjoy biking with your kids. Let me know if you need anything.
I have also enjoyed getting to know Renee.
