The Challenge

Here's my mission - run a 6 mile race on September 24th.

Ran one mile today, September 2nd.

My lungs are burning and I feel as if my head will explode.

Not sure how to tackle this one.

Any suggestions?

(and no, I don't want to drop out of the race)

The most important thing is to stick with it. Since you are an experienced runner your stamina will come back. I suggestion would be to make yourself go a half mile more each day, even if you have to walk it. Best wishes. What race are you running?

Carry an inhaler.

YOU can totally do this!

I am running the dirty dash in Heber on September 24th. Thanks, Angie, for the tip. I will do 1/2 mile more each day!

I am so jealous that you are doing the dirty dash. I tried to get in and it was already sold-out. I am sure you are going to have a great time!
