Now that we've come to the "taper" portion of my training program all of the things that the magazines say will happen are happening: doubting your training,feeling aches and pains, questioning my preparedness... It's true--just check out the most recent Runner's World!) knowing that this is expected does not do anymore to lessen the pause it brings me, but I am resolute in my commitment to taking it easy and staying loose though stretching and completing two more short relatively easy runs before Sunday's race.
