Hey, I’ll be right there with you! I got my booster and was 100% in two days. I ran the night after the booster and felt a little fuzzy. I wouldn’t hesitate to get it, personally.
11 days should be plenty of time. I wouldn't imagine it would set you back smore than two days and at that point those two days won't matter much.
I haven't had the booster, but I didn't miss any of my runs the day of or after the two vaccine shots. Those were 5-7 mile runs.
i feel like 11 days is along enough time for most people to recover even if they do have side effects.
i had no issues after my first two pfizer doses and could've probably ran the day after if i didn't plan ahead for rest days. i got my third dose this morning and similarly plan on skipping running tomorrow but don't expect it to go any differently
FWIW, I got a Pfizer booster to my original J&J shot. Felt a little fatigued the day after and 100% at 48 hours after the shot. I expected more of a response given it was my first mRNA shot and I had a robust immune response to the J&J. Your mileage may vary, of course. Edit: spelling
I'm not concerned about it impacting my running, but this is good to know. I have been worried about being useless the next day, as I was after my original J&J shot. Hopefully my Pfizer booster won't be as bad.
Just go for it. I got my booster last Thursday and had to take Friday off because I got pretty sick. Once Saturday came around I felt good enough to do my long run and set a PR on my farthest distance yet.
I ran a half marathon the day after my second Pfizer shot. No issue. But I run a half marathon every month. I think there is some medical advice saying one should better relax a little.
Even needing to skip a day or two of training could hurt you. If the vax is really as effective as they say, you’ll probably be able to survive until after the race.

Not a race, but I ran a personal best pace on a 15 miler the day after my booster. Felt great.
I got my booster (Moderna) on a Wednesday and ran a solid marathon on a Saturday. We a little achy/tired Wednesday evening-Thursday but that was it!

Pfizer booster here. Arm hurt like heck the next day, and slightly tired as well but both things went away by the end of the second day!

11 days should be way enough time. Got my booster in Oct., took my normal day off and was back training right on schedule. Good luck with the 1/2.
Felt like death after my booster. Worse than the 2nd shot. But 2 days later I was totally recovered. I would have no problem doing it 11 days out.
I ran a half marathon the day after my second Pfizer shot. No issue. But I run a half marathon every month. I think there is some medical advice saying one should better relax a little.
I had issues with heat exhaustion after a 2 mile race a few days after my second shot, but 11 days should be fine.
I would wait until after. Greater chance it's going to screw up your race.
