I just started training in earnest for this event this week and just completed my second 20 mile run in two days. I don't feel too bad, but then again, I didn't have to deal with jet lag or the extra 6 miles each day.

Admittedly, this picture is from before I started my serious training. Not sure I will be as cheery deep into the training cycle :)

I'm excited for the event, but I'm still formulating the training plan. I will want to ramp up the mileage, but also have to be careful not to overdo it and get injured ahead of the journey.
