finished the day with 17 miles

went out the door at 18:00, ran around Newport then back home for more water and gels, when out and did another 6 miles and called it a night, short on the miles but long on the smiles, so its a win in my book.

So I went and I ran.  my earlier plans to run sub 4 got derailed earlier in the year, but this was still a good run a great confidence booster on route to Comrades. Finished 4:45.59 my fastest marathon for a while.  Meat for dinner the night before. 2 boiled eggs and a piece of bacon for breakfast 1.5 to 2 hours before race, half a banana about 30 mins before the gun.  The route was farliy interesting, quite a few out and backs it seemed but some great course support.
