Starting off at 11:30, I came home at 4pm! Yes, it's true, I was out there for four and a half hours! I covered 35 kms, exactly half of the run on 12/10! I came back totally exhausted and sore! And I have no idea how I am going to finish the 70kms without someone rolling me off on a gurney! I'm still going to do it. I'm not going to give up.
I did find that a good breakfast helped tremendously as I didn't feel a bit hungry even though I brought a few snacks with me just in case. I also found out that being hydrated is very important. I didn't bring enough water and had to buy from the vending machines. I followed their tip and walked whenever there was a hill. Otherwise, I ran slowly, pacing myself the whole way. And was I ever so glad to get back and hop into the shower!
Tomorrow... a long walk!
Seek Him First!
