9 Days and Counting: Taper Time

Now that a heatwave has blanketed Saskatchewan with early spring weather here on the cusp of June, we turn our attention to the foliage and random birdsong out the window.  Yes, marathon season is here!

So I missed a good week of running recently thanks to catching the flu.  I missed my 36k long run, but given that I've already done a 32k run and a handful of 24 and 26k runs, I should be fine even if I am convinced that my fitness level sucks right now.

Now I get to taper.  My next run is likely a 3.5k tomorrow, followed by 5-6k on Monday and a light run on Wednesday.

For today, though, I get to sip my 7-11 coffee and smell the lilacs.
