Cold feet

A few months ago, I would not have thought it possible for me to even run 20k, let alone 30k or 42k. I'm pretty amazed at how my body has adapted to my training, even though I must admit that I've not been achieving what I've set out to do in my KLIM training program.

With my first 30k race in just less than 48 hours away, I try not to let negative thoughts come into my mind. I don't really know what to expect from running such a distance since it will be my first time. I have decided that it would be best to run without expectations as it should help me enjoy the experience a lot more.

On the other hand, what I am certain about is that this Sunday's run would show me where I stand in my training for the upcoming marathon. It would also tell me if I'm ready to take my training to the next level. If I manage to complete the run comfortably, then I can have the assurance of being able to complete the other three 30k training runs I have planned over the next few weeks.
