The Taper Begins

Yabberdabberdoo...here we go the taper begins.  Today I put in a 9 mile run and boy am I tired right now.  It feels like I have run my big one but I guess this is the culmination of the 22 from last weekend and the smaller runs this week. 

My friend Sam reminded me today it would be good to think about dropping a pound if at all possible during this carbo loading, recovering 2 week stint.  Most people put on weight in this stage but I sure would love to drop a pound and make my load lighter.  Still no grains but sugar has crept back in via chocolate and the odd processed piece of food that has sugar added to it.  Feeling excited.  Just gotta keep the nutrition and the hydration going, plenty of sleep and a good attitude.
