Oh Boy! I'm not ready for this race at all. I ran 13K today at lunch and almost passed out. I felt dizzy and hot. I think I've got symptoms of Asthma because after about 9-10K I begin to wheeze for air and it feels like my lungs are not getting replenished. The temps was about 25Deg C and with a slight tail wind, I was overheating in the last 3K.
This 42K run will be a test of my willpower because I have not put in the quantity of miles I need to ensure a 4-hour finish time. I think I'll be a little longer than my first Marathon. As long as I finish on my own steam I'll be happy.
I keep asking myself what have I gotten myself into? I'll be answering when I cross the finish line.
Chuck
