It's great being able to do the distance, isn't it? My training plan was to make sure I could do the distance before entering. The longest I'd run before then was about 15km. It hurt like hell but I made it through sheer stubborn determination. Since then I've improved my time by about 10 minutes in three months. I'm eating like a horse this week. I mentally hit the wall at about 3pm at work today and I had to be there until 6. I'm planning an early night tonight. At least the legs are starting to feel good again. Thanks to everyone for all the comments. I'll let you know how I get on this weekend. Why did I enter two of these things?
