Subject: RE: 08.29.2019 Thursday Taper Party6:00 AM: 30-minute run.  Some of it was fast, but most of it was slow.  I am doing a really deep taper/rest week.  Compared to the 2-1/2 hour run I was doing two weeks ago, this mornings 30-minute run was just a warm-up.  I will be doing three races in the next 5 weeks.  Combined they will be about the equivalent of an Ironman.  My sprint this week will be about as long as the swim leg of an Ironman.  The 70.3 race that I do three weeks after that will be about as long as the bike leg of an Ironman and the Marathon that I do two weeks after that will round out the run leg of the Ironman.      |
