I don't know how much encouragement I can offer -OKC will be my first marathon also and I'm getting nervous. My last long run was 23.5M on 4/2 and guess what I did? I fell at mile 16. They are working on the path I run and transitioning from the new path to old, I tripped and fell! Skinned up my knees, hands and chin (ouch) on the asphalt. Fortunately, I didn't twist, sprain, or break anything. Once I cleaned up at the water fountain, I was able to finish my planned run with a very slow 4hr40M time...

I was hoping that my last long run would be one of those magical, give me confidence type runs - but I guess I blew that.... Now I'm having dreams of falling in the marathon! Arrghh - I'm going to go crazy before this is over!
