33 days left!

Completed my first full 20 miles yesterday along the bike trail in 3:38....it was a very long three and a half hours!!!!!! I felt as though I was doing a much slower pace but I have been pretty consistent on all of my runs. Running alone really helps to keep my pace from fluctuating and maintains my focus...yes, boring but focused. I am looking forward to actually doing the race and having the energy of everyone to keep me going. The training, I believe, is the most difficult. I have to plan my weekend around my long runs and make sure i have eaten and hydrated properly starting two days in advance. I cannot even imagine how the Ultra Marathoner's train...20 miles a day? who knows! Anyway, looking forward to actually completing the race and working toward the next...perhaps CIM...nice and flat!! BTW, the marathon will be streaming live for those wanting to watch...address for the site to follow.
