20-mile and tapper time

I did my 20-mile run Oct. 15. I'll be honest - it wasn't great and the last mile SUCKED. That makes me pretty wary of the 26.2. Maybe that was just a bad run?

I hope so. Either way, I was STOKED when it was done. Here's a pic.

It was so nice to be done. That is, until two days later when I was extremely stiff. I took it really easy all last week because of it. I'm hoping to get back to my full workouts this week. The race is a week from Saturday, after all.

Now it's time to taper. Last week (today is Oct. 24) I did one run.

I have to do 3, 3 and 8 miles this week.
