People, I am losing my motaivation, every since I was dianosed with a disability(00). Then My college classmate and my Marathon consult's brother was killed in a acc,next his marathon partner of years died the next week. So no I couldn't ask him to be my relay partener at Notre Dame(6-8-02)(I was ready I ran 4,13-14 miles trainning runs). Then on my 20 mile trainnig run(5-28-02),my feet burned so bad I had to walk the last 2 miles. A nonrunning Doctor said all this running is not good for a 50 something Guy!!! So now, that lead me to Plantar Fac. So now I am useing orthoric's encerts,ice, antinflammtories, rest and short runs. But I am only able to run 10-12miles on wkend long runs, then my feet burn like (H). I am disappionted, because everytime I push my self and run hard fast and long, I hurt for days and go backwards in my trainning.I was going to enter the Chicago Marathon, but when school starts I have less time to train(Iam a Teacher), so Iam losing my Motivation. I am about ready to give up, but I have trained for a year(and I did run 18 miles)!!!! Anybody out there want to kick me on my behind, I need it!!!! I always fire up my players, but now Iam burning out. Frastrated, (Indiana farm boy,teacher and B-Ball choach), Anywords like (hang in there)would be appreicated, Cecil.
