6 miles, 800 vert.  moderate pace, feeling a little recovery coming on, I guess its taper by default for this weekend.  Race or not, I needed an easier few days.  I was getting really spacey and forgetful at work, had no energy durning the day, and eating everything in sight.  When I get like that I know its time to back off a bit.  Still not planning on really running hard on Saturday, I'm still pretty beat even after a few easier days.  We'll see how it feels on race day.  No nagging pain, body feels healthy, just fatigue, knee got a little tweaked coming down Icebox on Tuesday, had to walk for a bit to mellow it out, but felt o.k. tonight.  Looking forward to a fun weekend in Stuuur Valleah Wyom'en!

Win it outright. Then tear your shirt off, befriend a mountain lion, and walk around with your new friend so everyone knows that you own that place.
