Disbelief turned to anger, anger...after the event. Disbelief turned to anger, anger turned to sadness and honestly, while sadness has greatly dissipated, it is still very much a part of <a href="https://medium.com/@larisabrownb/love-language-test-d1107d43c5d7" rel="nofollow">love language quiz</a> my conscious. While I was still peeing blood on Sunday, I was confident I had done the right thing, but once my body began feeling better, I was flooded with doubt. What did I do wrong? What could I have done differently? Could I have safely kept going? <br />lovelanguagetesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16461906277081297931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-474770936671895749.post-30013789006300969672013-09-11T11:58:34.927-07:002013-09-11T11:58:34.927-07:00Thanks, Amy.

I am very sorry to hear that you dealt with the likes at UTMB:( But I will only be cheering even harder for you when you take it on again.katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03367153184816375965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-474770936671895749.post-48538117599306530212013-09-05T16:03:54.388-07:002013-09-05T16:03:54.388-07:00Hi Katie, I just came across this and it sounds si...Hi Katie, I just came across this and it sounds similar to problems I experienced at UTMB this year. At least the painful urination and bladder issues, etc. Mine turned to vomiting and nausea and not shitting myself, but at some point, I just opted to call it a day as sometimes you can just tell that what you're doing is causing bodily harm and that it's just not your day. Some issues you fight through (sore quads, etc.), and others it just really doesn't make sense to (major internal systems imbalance). Live to fight another day and protect a body that will continue to carry us through the mountains for years to come if we respect it. And while we all pour our hearts into training for these things, no race is worth risking permanent damage. I hope that you get back out there soon and have the day you dream of. I can't wait for my next try.amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17331844957221069032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-474770936671895749.post-38579666264151948002013-08-30T13:15:40.207-07:002013-08-30T13:15:40.207-07:00Thank you all so much.

Because even after, I'm definitely not in a negative space whatsoever! On the contrary, I'm looking forward to what's next and already excited to push even harder next year. Feeling grateful that I did nothing that might have taken away the chance to try again.katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03367153184816375965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-474770936671895749.post-23665219303308847942013-08-28T13:33:58.886-07:002013-08-28T13:33:58.886-07:00Very honest write-up.

I get this so much and give you much props for going on as far as you did. One day it will all come together, and then it will fall apart again. That's the nature of these silly things we do.
