I believe tappering isn't about slowing down but doing less miles. So if you usually do a 5 mile tempo run on a Tuesday then you should do a 2.5 mile tempo run at the same speed you'd do the 5 mile tempo run. Everything is less not slower or faster. Then the day before the race you don't have to run.
Anyway, I plan on having fun no matter what my time is. I feel a little like the grasshopper that didn't store anything for the winter. Then along comes Larry with a free hand-out.
I'm trying to imagine Terry standing in a circle at the front of a fast and testimony meeting blessing his beautiful new baby girl and naming her Larry.
It's easier for me to picture Terry stopping and standing for a couple of minutes 3 feet from the finish line waiting for the clock to click to 3:00. More likely, he and his wife have already decided not to have anymore children. Or they'll make that decision if Terry goes sub-3. :o)
Girls can be called Larry, Jo Nelson's Mom is named Larry, not sure of spelling.
