a little pickup just to stretch the legs. I still need to get some drills and strides in and do some extra flexibility work. The taper is going well but I don't like tapering unless it's two or three days. For the marathon, you need 10 days to two weeks to help heal your body from the the months of high mileage. I still want to go for a long ass run but I can't. I'll get a long enough run come Sunday.

I'm getting that one minute super tired, a minute later super over energized taper feeling. That's my body responding to the taper. I'm not sure exactly why this happens but from what I can gather the body is repairing months of damage, only doing half as much activity, etc and as a result you get these wierd side affects. I could do without the lack of a double dose of endorphins I've grown accustomed to though.

energized today. The first day in months where I was not tired when I woke up in the morning. My easy run was easy effort but I ended up going sub 7:00 pace. oops. well I'm feeling good heading into Sunday.
