My 1st DNS(Did Not Start).........

Got my 1st DNS(did not start). It's not my fault, though. Stage 9 of My Journey was moved to San Monica, CA. and just been notified 3 day ago. No time to make the travel arrangement , beside I am tired and unmotivated to run this stage of My Journey.

Will  concentrate my training for the Long Beach International Bank Marathon, the last stage of My Journey and try to set a new PR. A PR is a good motivation.


Venue was moved from Long beach to San Monica beach walk.




This morning did an LSD run at the original route(Long Beach).  Heat was unforgiving. No place to hide. After one loop, I quit(need 3 loops to complete a marathon).   
Distance: 9 miles
Time : 1:34:27

    I am sorry to hear about your DNS. It is not your fault. Organizers should not change race venue after runners have already registered. Plans get all messed up. Any way, this one is not counted in your MM journey, isn't it? Take it easy and don't let the heat get you.
