You will do it Andy

[Iceman]

Greetings, Andy. I saw the post about your aborted 20 miler and felt the urge to chime in. Forget it ever happened. During the latter part of the training cycle for my PR marathon I went out for a 10 mile pace run the day before my final 20 miler. I had to cut it to six miles because my knee had all but folded completely. The next morning I sat on my front steps in a light mist arguing with myself on whether to even attempt the 20 miler or bag it. I gave it a go and had the best 20 miler I've ever had, followed by a sub 4:00 marathon two weeks later. One run or one ache means very little in the grand scheme of a training cycle...even if it comes near the end. You'll do splendidly. No doubt about it. Now, put down the pint, lace up your shoes and get out there!

Cheers!
