So I went out yesterday morning at 7am for the 18 mile run which I was dreading. But get this... I loved it! Not sure how that happened!
In the end I managed to run 18.5 miles and I reckon I could have run a further 2 miles if I'd wanted to.
Think that it had a lot to do with the carb loading on Thurs and Friday, as I didn't even use an energy gel or think to take one out of my pocket. Therefore, lesson is to carb load on Thurs and Fri this week and try and replicate the feeling again... and again... and again... and again... and finally again! (4 long practice runs and 1 marathon to go, wouldn't it be great if all of these runs would be as enjoyable! Here's hoping).
