Twenty Shweny!

I really feel like the "downer" of the group, but once again my 20 miles STUNK! I was ok until about mile 10 and then it all went down hill from There!! I wasn't sure what was going on, other than I felt like death! I know that is an extreme feeling, but I swear I felt it hahaha! It took me an hour and ten minutes longer to run 20 than it did 18!! I knew something was wrong, so I sought advice from my Mexican man Sway! He told me to change it up for a week and work on stretching and strength training with added cardio besides running. So that's what we did! I Love working out with him! He reminds me how strong I am and he builds my confidence up! He throws little remarks once in a while and I'm not sure why he does that other than he feels like I'm his sister hahahaha... He also makes me feel like I can do anything so ya! He put me on the treadmill and I about fell over! It was like an "Oprah light bulb moment!" I expected to just run pretty fast just like I used to and I simply could not! Something was really wrong with me! Basically after three chiropractor visits we decided my hips keep coming out of place and I NEED to stretch Better after I run!! I've messed things up big time and we are working really hard to fix it before the marathon in 16 days!!!! I can't believe it is that soon! After our mental preparation crash course (I'll let the other girls give their two bits on that) I feel like I can climb any stair case that is put in front of me... It's the physical I'm worried about!!
