Prepping with a plethora of Steeples

What exactly goes into a 20+ mile run at 5:45 AM? A LOT! 
1. I have mapped out and studied my route. No shortfalls this time! 
2. 4 waters dropped throughout Herriman and South Jordan. Where's the best place to stash a water bottle for 12 hours? Find a steeple! They are so evenly space apart from each other. I know I can always find a LDS church house right around the time I need water. I just throw a bottle under a tree and I'm good to go. I do put a "T" on mine, so I know it's actually mine. At the first church, I saw that someone else had stashed a bottle. I found some paper and pen and wrote, "Good luck. Rock on, run on!" I hope that if someone stops for their water, it will give them a little motivation to keep going strong. At first glance, the water looked frosty like it was just placed. When I went to put the note under it, I realized it's probably been there a while. It's the thought that counts.
3. Next stop is Harmon's for 3 bags of ice for the ice bath after my run. Luckily I don't have gallons of ice cream in there because it's about all my freezer can hold.
4. Lay out all the clothes and paraphernalia that I will need.

5. Get my breakfast ready.

My oatmeal is the first thing I will do in the AM. I will add a little low fat yogurt to it too. It seems to work well for my stomach. I usually wake up, make breakfast, then go sit back in bed, and try to eat it. It's hard to eat when you've only been awake 5 minutes but my body needs time to digest it before I run.
6. Rest and relaxation. Now I must try to wind down so that I can get a decent amount of sleep tonight. I am actually really looking forward to this run. I know it will be a challenge. There might be unforeseen problems, that why it's called training. But I also know it's my last long run before the marathon. I will give it 110% After this I can relax a little. It's my last chance to show me that I can push through this. My body feels good. I've been eating good. I am so blessed. Let's see what tomorrow brings.
