Had my all night training walk this week.  60 miles in 14:23:59.  Overall my feet got tired. The outside muscle of my calves were sore. My lower abs and lower back were sore.  Staying up all night was not a problem.  No blisters or hot spots.  For my Centurion attempt I will have to walk a little faster pace.  Walk almost nine hours longer.  All my thoughts of grandeur and fame are gone.  I will hold to my planned pace for the race.  Hope that the excitement of the race gives me a boost. I will also make a point to have a full taper week before race day.  I am still excited.  An excited realist now.  Walking 100 miles in 24 hours will not be easy.  I know I can do it.  All the soreness went away by Wednesday.

This week 55.2 Miles.

I jumped right back into high mileage after my Oklahoma City Marathon.  Legs feel good.  Still a little tired.  Nothing hurt.  Looking forward to my all night walk.  The weather forecast for Saturday night is strong storms.  I will bump up my overnighter to Friday night thru Saturday Morning.  Rain is in the forecast but not bad storms.  My goal is 56 miles in 14 hours.  Time on my feet but not fast enough to hurt anything.  Lots of snacks and music.  Looking forward to it.

None the worst for wear after the Oklahoma City Memorial Marathon.  My legs don’t have the pop they had before the race.  Nothing is sore or hurt.   A nice recovery week.  That pop will be back soon.  Australian Centurion C67 John Kilmartin is helping me through this last push in training.  He has suggested I add an all night LSD walk four weeks before my Centurion attempt.  I will do it on Saturday night May 9th.  Supposed to help get my Mind right and build confidence.  Start about 9 pm and walk through the next morning.  Thanks John.  Sounds funny but I am actually looking forward to it.  I have always thought the overnight portion of the 24 hour race would be my weak link.
