It's a rough road being that long. Since last year my commute is 26 miles. Most days it's OK, some days it kicks my butt. Yesterday was one of the latter. I was out of steam with 10 miles left to go. I always make it but sometimes it's rough.
As a side note it's interesting that you say your boss and manager are "supportive of my goals" - I know what you mean but it's kind of interesting that work would care how you get there. It does require some accommodation for that long a ride though. Happily after a few months of me riding without showers, they put in a gym and showers at work.
