These miles felt like they took forever. Clocking in at a pedestrian 71 minutes, I guess they did. The good news is, that's a m/m faster than yesterday. Ugh. There is no sign of bounce in my legs today, either.
Treadmill Miles: 8.00
Omni 9 With Red Dots Miles: 8.00

somedays it just goes that way. Even for peeps like Allie and Andrea. But not Jake. I think he has superhuman powers.
you're normal. don't get discouraged. :)

You'd be surprised, Lily, if you saw the pace of some of my runs. No superhuman powers. I have my days where I feel like crud - I've just learned when to back off a little early to prevent them from happenings.
Kam per your question yesterday - I think a 2 weeks taper is pretty good. And plus we get a whole extra taper weekend since Boston is on a Monday.

Thanks, Jake and Lily. I think I'll complete one more average (for the last 4 months) week, and then ease into a nice taper.
What are your thoughts on my planned 1/2 marathon on April 7th? I"m beginning to think it's too close for comfort...

I'm running it too Kam. Marathon pace and not a step faster... maybe even like 5 seconds slower/mile than MP. Just using it as my last longer workout. Ideally it would be 2 weeks out... but if you dont really race it like a normal 1/2 marathon, I think you'll be OK.
