I should race Malmö Marathon today - but my left quadriceps ached too much yesterday for me to go. It's not too bad now, but I won't risk full-on injury through 42.2km.
I really, really wanted this race. I'm doing a lot of motivated reasoning right now about why participating would actually be a good idea.
But it wouldn't.
And I know that. Not participating is the right decision. Better safe than sorry and all that. There will be other races.
Still, in this very moment, my spirit is low.
