Out for my first clinic night in close to a month.  Not being able to run, I skipped the talks that had been taking place every Tuesday evening.  It was too difficult to extricate myself from the dinner/bed routine of the girls if I wasn't going to do a run.

The Mississauga racers are beginning their taper this week, so Jacqui reviewed everything that had been covered in the 15 weeks thus far.  Seems like I missed a lot of them.  :-(  Oh well, I've been through a number of clinics before.  Many of the topics are repeated.  I think I'll have to sit down and get a book to read on specific marathon issues.
