So, I did it! I did my twenty miler this morning.
It was a GREAT morning for a long run-foggy, cold, wet, misty, all of the above. Couldn’t see much in front of me. Did a lot of thinking.
The run took 3:30, so the marathon will take about 4:30. I’m good with that. Great with that, actually.
When I rounded the corner to my house at the end of the run, I threw my hands up in victory, shouted a few words and then cried just a bit.
20 freaking miles. I am blown away with myself right now.
I got home and my wonderful husband made me eggs and toast for breakfast. Then I had a long, hot shower and now a great cup of coffee with cream.
What a great way to start the day. After this my kids and I are going to do puppet shows.
20 miles.
Now all I have left are a 12, 8 and then the big day!
Three weeks from tomorrow I’ll be running my first marathon.
To think, I made it through the past five months of training.
