I cut miles off on the non-key days plus took the Fri-Sat-Sun runs as a serious taper. Felt like after a hard August I needed to give my body a rest and prepare for Monday’s race all at once. Seemed like a smart and noble goal. Won’t know if it pays off for a bit but seems like a solid plan. Get some of those nagging aches out of there.
Funny though, 58 was a solid week last Spring — now it seems like a vacation!
Leaving for Denver now. Let’s go racing!
