Don't ask unless you want an answer

As I mentioned a while back, I decided to run the Gumbo Flats 10K to see if my fitness was where it needed to be to put in an honest effort at Pere Marquette.

40:24.

It's not.

So, now I need to decide if I'll try to address the fitness in the mere seven weeks between now and then, accept that I'm not fit and run anyway, or not run.

Anybody who knows me knows that option 2 is a non-starter. Especially at a race where I have as much history as Pere Marquette. So it's train super hard for about five weeks or just go up there and have a nice weekend, maybe working one of the water stops.

That last one sounds pretty appealing.
