Mine is 20.5 each way, if you're in shape for it and have the time, a 44 RT commute could be easily done 5 days a week.

I agree that added protein to the diet (within reason) helps. What has also helped me was adding a couple of little cans of that V8 juice to my lunchbox - one in the morning and one in the afternoon. A nice little potassium boost right after the morning ride and right before the afternoon ride.
