I have seen over the few months, people suggest that one consider pulling out of an IM, because they are having various issues. The latest being ejs in chicago with the knee problemm. My question is this: Has anyone done that? and what was the mental impact? A person has to sign up a year in advance and drop almost $400, mostly non-refundable.
I don't think I could not start, save for a broken bone or serious injury, I am tighter than the skin on a grape to throw away $. I think I would try to find a work around.
What are other people's opinions?
FYI: I am training for my first IM ( Wisconsin), and trying to juggle a new job, and my wife just gave birth a month ago to our first child. The thought of pulling out crossed my mind, but said WTF, give it my best shot.
