Consequently, my ambitious goal proved somewhat my undoing, as I'd compounded things by not drinking adequately or consuming sufficient electrolytes. While I walked a few miles I finished my 20th marathon, and learned some lessons which I'll share in a subsequent post.Mark U.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04792726660751354015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6734734314641145473.post-63830124352808651342010-10-09T21:10:47.474-05:002010-10-09T21:10:47.474-05:00This is such a great blog, I really had fun readin...This is such a great blog, I really had fun reading it.

Your plan is a good one.<br />Good luck & run strong.

Sorry about the warm weather - I'm not sure if this confirms global warming, but it certainly suggests a later race date is the only guarantee for cooler temps!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00549559153059700099noreply@blogger.com
