The End is Near

I have one more hard run before I taper. This Sunday morning I will wake up at 3 am and set out on my final 22 mile run of this marathon cycle. I have done all the work and am ready to cut my mileage back over the next 3 weeks and heal a few of these aches and pains that have built up in the last couple of months. After Sunday the hay is in the barn so to speak and the best thing that I can do is rest, keep myself hydrated, focus on my nutrition, keep myself loose and enjoy the fact that we have made it through a marathon cycle without missing a workout. I am excited to know that I have made it this far.
