OK. I'm a bit nervous.
Some of you may remember that last year, I lost my younger brother to suicide. I have missed him every day since. This also was not my first exposure - I became a survivor in high school when my BF killed himself a week before we graduated.
This morning, I registered to "Walk the Overnight" at the end of June - an 18 mile walk benefiting the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. The walk begins at 7 pm, and concludes with a ceremony the next morning at 5 am - sundown to sunup.
Here's the thing. I'm in GREAT shape FOR A CYCLIST. Anyone have any good advice on things I can do between now and then to prep for this walk? I am going to continue riding/racing between now and then, so don't think I will be completely altering my training schedule... I do walk quite a bit at work these days, but not 18 miles at a time.
Thanks for your input and advice!
