20 mile run

   I went into my 20 mile run as if it was the marathon. I will admit that it was very hard. At first I was disappointed because I had to walk/run the last 2 miles, but now 2 days later, I have decided it was a learning experience. I did many things well, but there are other areas I need to work on. I need more water for one thing, but on race day that won't be a problem with the drink stations. In addition, I hated running with cars which also won't be a problem race day. I also need to work on my pace during the next 5 weeks. If I had kept on pace, I would have been almost done with all 26 miles instead of just 20 after 4 hours and 45 minutes of running. I am beginning to believe that I can do this :)
