I just ran The Leading Ladies Marathon in South Dakota in August. It is probably the most beautiful race I've ever run. 26 miles down a scenic canyon.
I'm going to run the Philly Half this weekend. I've got the West Virgina Freedom Marathon on Oct 1. Then Richmond in November -- which in theory is my target race. And then Rehoboth Beach Marathon with a couple of friends in Dec.
The part of the foot that was broken doesn't hurt while I run (although it tends to ache afterward) - it's all the muscles in my legs that are no longer used to running. Plus it's depressing to be so much slower than I used to be, for the same heart rate.
Not being able to run for a while must have sucked. You'll get it back, though. I know you.
My problem is that 10 marathons in a year doesn't leave any time to train to be faster. I've been pretty consistent with my times on the races I've raced. But they are slower that I'd like.

I'm developing something in my heel. I'm hoping ice and ibuprofen will take care of it.

Ice ice baby! Or maybe you need new shoes.
