Final "trial" run before the big decision. Even though it wasn't as good as I wanted I did break the 8:00 pace and after 20 miles I didn't feel like I was dying. Today I walked after every mile for about 15 seconds and made sure I caught my breath and got a good drink. On most of my long runs (15-20 miles) I lose about 5 lbs. Today I didn't lose any weight at all. I drank four bottles (I think 8oz) on every 7 mile loop. I'm making my hotel reservation for OKC today. You can sure tell where the biggest hills are on my run.

Exodus 17:11
11 As long as Moses held up his hands, the Israelites were winning, but whenever he lowered his hands, the Amalekites were winning.
I think I'm at a place where I need some encouragment. |
