Goals for the week:
- Clear pee (hydrate, hydrate, hydrate!)
- Rest (as in sleep; trying to get at least 7 hours of sleep a night, which is more than normal for me)
- Run the runs on the schedule and really rest on the rest days (no cross on rest days!)
- Stay away from sickos (much easier now that I’m the only one in my office; it seemed like a secretary or attorney was always sick during my previous taper weeks; now I can just hole up in my office by myself)
- Eat decent (limit crap food and beer! notice I didn’t say eliminate? when I try to eliminate it back fires and I end up binging and having even more than normal)
So the week is supposed to look like this:
- M: Rest
- T: 6 miles easy
- W: 7 miles w/ 2 at MP
- Th: Rest
- F: 5 easy w/ a few strides
- Sa: 4 easy
- Su: Race day!
If you want to set up tracking, I’m number F576.

Yay!!! I have you all set up for stalking… errr, tracking! 🙂
Enjoy your taper and kick some bootie this weekend!
Sweet! Have a great week. I am all set up to follow you. Go get ’em!
GOOD LUCK! I’ll be cheering from afar.
