Breaking the 20-mile wall

Posted by Steve Carton on Aug 29, 2008 9:15:08 AM

 

Not fast and not pretty, but my RB and I managed our first 20 miler in our quest for Batlimore marathon glory. Yesterday evening was an an okay running evening in DC - around 70 degrees and very humid, but for August in DC? A welcome respite from the oppressive heat.

 

 

So we decided to extend our planned 18 mile LDT run and see how we felt doing 20. And it was just great. I could easily have gone more. What a big psychological boost as we head into the last weeks of training for Baltimore.
