Long and winding road

Im a bit late posting this blog, but on Sunday l managed todo my 20 mile walk, the first mile or so was a killer, l could of quite happliy gone home back to bed, l only got up halfhour earlier, but not being a morning person this never sits well, l think my muscles hadnt warmed up, as l got a few shooting pains in my legs as l started, once l got over the first couple of miles l was away, the morning was beutiful, just the right tempriture for walking, lmade a real effot not to gulp water down this time , as l seem to spend all my time on the loo otherwise, hubby met me with the kids a few times on route with water, bananas, and moral support wich always helps. When l got to about 17 miles l hit a brick wall, not with pain, or the urge to stop, just found re walking over the same route that l had just done hard, l tried to plan my route not to do this, but couldn't avoid 3 miles of back tracking, this really does prove that most of this challange is in your head. Well l completed my 20 miles and felt really good, my trainers were comfi, and my new socks which my sisiter sent me were fantastic, l got straight into a cool shower which helps, and spent the rest of the day with the kids, 5hrs 50 mins it took not bad l thourght,
