Ok... I am totally going crazy. (marathon is next sunday)
I ran about 8 today it well I wasn't satisfied. I took a couple days off to heal up from a massage. I am reducing my miles... and well I'm going stir crazy but I know it...
I am ultra irritable.
Every little ache and pain is amplified and causes paranoid thoughts... until I go WTF and slap myself...
I want to run fast I want to run long...
but I know I need to rest.
I figure I am going to get more and more excited... perhaps thursday will come and I will get calm and pensive.
ok... I figure this is probaly a bit normal. Especially for the first one.
Any suggestions for the week. One I read online was to try to sleep really well friday night as saturday night will be tough to sleep...

drugs, lots of 'em.
I hate tapering too. |
The Marathon itself, is the victory lap.
The real marathon is the training you do to get there.
RUN, not to add days to your life, but to add life to your days

| Sounds like a normal taper to me. |
And you can quote me as saying I was mis-quoted.

Play some video games?
Whenever I need to take my mind off of something and I can't run do it, I fire up the X-box 360 and blow shit up. |
