I start to get almost electric shocks in that foot, not while I'm running but later. I would probably have to do all the training in a very short period, run the 10K, which wouldn't have to be in a race, and then go through a couple weeks of discomfort. Not pain, just very weird stuff. I haven't ruled this out, but we'll see.Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00551547836073871713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8688122593965458335.post-80445138630666062962008-07-19T13:26:00.000-04:002008-07-19T13:26:00.000-04:00You can do it, Jean.

It's more interesting if you run roads than on a track somewhere, and if you're in a race rather than by yourself.<BR/><BR/>It's been a while since I did a 10k race (I think I only ever did one), but I could go the distance, albeit slowly. :-)Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17520335066746846296noreply@blogger.com
