Last 20 Mile Run

Ran 20 miles Saturday morning. The weather was perfect. Temperatures started in the 50's and very low humidity. Started the run at 9:00 am to get closer to the starting time of the marathon. Ran the 20 in 3 hours and 9 minutes. Felt pretty good for about the first 15 to 16 miles then I started getting a little tight and sore in my legs. This was not as bad as last years training but still noticeable. I also knew that the pain would be gone not long after I finished. Sure enough I felt fresh as a daisy later in the day. Burned 2600 calories. Purchased a new pair of New Balance running shoes today and will break them in this week to see if that will help. This next Saturday I will run 15 miles as I start to taper down for the race.
