My goal race should have been on Sunday 24th... I trained a lot for it (8 weeks of a hard plan) but: - got cough from my kids last week - my father-in-law died 2 days ago and I was the one injecting him the last morphine shot (he had an esophageal cancer from June) - not slept for 2 nights tried to run this morning at slow pace, but my physical condition is very bad. my mental strength is also weak. stress levels over the top. currently I don't even know if I want to run the race or not. I'm emptied in the body and mind. let's see if something changes between now and Sunday... I don't know why I'm writing here those negative vibes, but you are my community and a way for me to escape from the tough reality of these days.

Wow! It is a lot. Life happens and it always come first. You had a beautiful race some days ago. I know it is not what you aimed for, but it was your best. I would wait and see and maybe do a more relaxed run on Sunday? You already have you best time and run. Maybe this one will help you center you if you don’t push too much?

yeah, I thought the same. the last race was my best and 1:25 was the goal. so I'm already satisfied. I was secretly aiming for 1:24:59 for Sunday, but now I'm not in the mood for it. let's see. maybe I will pace a friend for his PR or try to push hard and see if I can withstand with the pace... dunno. I just need something to distract my mind from those terrible images of the last few days

I can totally understand. I’ve been through something very similar. It takes time. The idea of pacing for your friend seems good. You will be distracted and helping someone. It takes the pressure off.
