Taper

And so with two weeks to go the taper begins in earnest. I have actually had a day off from running. But the cycle commute and lunchtime gym session kept me sane. Tapering is a bit boring though...

I am already thinking past the marathon to plans for the summer and autumn. The current plan is to have a 3 months triathlon season where I do a bit more cycling and swimming and a bit less running (but still at least 50 miles per week.) It would be good to get some speed into the legs as well.

Then over the late summer and early autumn I can build up the mileage, maybe for a trail marathon.

Having been injured a couple of years ago I know how lucky I am to be running pain free. I plan to make the most of it.
