Otherwise if you are in for alot of money, then go and walk the majority of the course anyways. You'll finish just fine, its not like you wont make the cutoffs. Just walk/jog the 'run' without injuring yourself and get your money's worth via medal and T-Shirt. <br /><br />I would rather see you use Muskoka for you 'A' race. There is still plenty of time to be 100% for that one. Dont risk injury at calgary for nothing.<br /><br />Our pool has dedicated 'lap' nights for real swimmers mostly. its hard finiding someon that matches speed though, but luckily our pool is quiet and we tent to always get our own lane :)JohnPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10946318913789970069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4943518837957020245.post-54929815870149781652011-06-28T20:10:09.215-04:002011-06-28T20:10:09.215-04:00The only thing I would worry about it re-injuring ...The only thing I would worry about it re-injuring it. If you aren't going to be on the hook for huge dollars, I'd cut my losses and focus on Muskoka. I really wouldn't want 1 race to sideline me for many more months.<br /><br />That said, if you do 5x1 and are prepared to stop the race altogether (or walk) to preserve your health, then go for it. It's hard to do, though. My suggestion is to think long term health so you can keep doing these crazy sports.CouplaHoundshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01451071337732010115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4943518837957020245.post-87366432844659106272011-06-28T19:33:27.421-04:002011-06-28T19:33:27.421-04:00Yea BDD.
