I am married with 3 lovely children 26, 18, &12and a dog named Koda and a cat named Blue.  Love to run and be outside.  I believe that if you think you can do it and you work hard enough any thing is possible.   Life flashes by in the blink of an eye, enjoy it while it last and remember there is a lot more to life than running. I coach high school swim and love it!

did the elliptical for 40 mins and then WT upper.

To run the half or not that is the question, I want to do it but I know if I do I will be super sore in the pubic bone again.  That pain has gone away, which means I won't be running for a while or not at all until after the baby is born.  I don't know why I have this pull to do it, I know I will be slow, I don't even have a # but can get a ride to the start.  On the other hand I really would like to see the super fasty's at the finish.  Oh geez what to do?

do the half and watch the elites finish the full.

Or volunteer and don't run it.

A man should not strive to eliminate his complexes but to get into accord with them, for they are legitimately what directs his conduct in the world. -Sigmund Freud

You know what you should do girl, just trust it.

I can say I understand this one! This is how I felt with my Memorial Day 1/2 marathon. I really wanted to, but was worried 'body' wise. I don't have the pubic pain like you do, but I knew it would take a toll. However, I also knew that if I didn't do it I would feel SO cheated in the end!! THAT was what finally pushed me - thinking about how I would feel AFTER the race.

Volunteering is a GREAT option and would provide you the running outlet w/out the pain, but if you know you'll regret it in the end (even knowing the pain you'll have to endure) do what your heart tells you.

That's my 2 cents - for what it's worth!
