AM - I have almost shaken the bug that hit me, just a little congestion remaining at this point. Only 8.2 miles this morning, all easy averaged 7:30 pace overall. I met with Sasha, Jeff and Adam at 5:00am. We ran 6 together and then I was off to BYU for physical training with ROTC and ran a couple more miles with them. I am starting to feel a lot better and am starting to fell the taper kicking in. I am feeling rested and the legs are starting to feel pretty good. As Sasha would say the horses are starting to neigh but in my case it is only one horse starting to neigh right now. Maybe next week it will be horses neighing. I will get some more miles tonight at James' cross country practice. PM - 5 miles at James XC practice on the rolling grass. Easy run nothing exciting. We did one stride at the end.
It is looking like we have a winner for a new FastRunningBlog slogan. It seems most are really liking "Run. Blog. Improve. Repeat." and more importantly Sasha really likes it. If you have not yet checked out the discussion forum you should check it out there is some good topics going.
