On my 2 week taper for the R&R Marathon. This plan still has me running some fast miles but the distances are short. 3 miles @ below 7:00 pace was the goal with 2 miles warm up and 10 minute cool-down. The cool-down was a little long as I decided to just run my loop and do the workout.
I was really pleased with a 2 mile warm up at 8:02 and 131 HR. It felt really easy. The first mile and a half of the three miles was pretty easy but the last mile and a half was a little difficult. I think my legs are still a little tired from the race. My left calf said hello.
