Don't throw the addiction term around too freely. Addictions make our lives unmanagable. If running makes your life unmanagable, quit.

Have you been running enough to tackle a 13.1 race? You don't need a heart attack your first week of recovery. Don't they usually have a 5K walk/run at these races too, for the beginners?

PS
I see now that Scott has the same concerns. Running isn't an addiction, but wanting to overdue something...that's an alcoholic characteristic. Be careful.
