So I have been very cagey about my running lately, vague in posts but it is time to share why.

This is a blog that draws a line on my past

wp.me

Possibly the hardest thing I have ever done

Good blog Gobi, brave and tough decision.

In my opinion, for what it is worth, the right decision.

I wondered what your run was over the weekend. Sorry to hear the body can't cope.

Sad blog, enjoyed the history recap though (knew some bits but not the full story) and that's a real battle with injuries. You probably did as much as you could given the injury cards dealt out but that's probably no compensation.

I get the angst that having the engine and the will but not the body to compete at the level you want to.

Other doors will open.

Damn these treacherous meat prisons, eh, Gobs?

(good blog, sounds like definitely the right call if not the easiest, thank you for sharing)

That was an interesting, honest and (for me as a new arrival at the hotel) informative blog. The disconnect between what we want our bodies to do, and their ability to do it, is a hard thing to come to terms with.
