Some people flourish during taper - enjoying the rest, catching up on the giant pile of laundry that's been growing since you've been busy training, and getting the right fluids and fuel into the body.
1. I replace my time spent running consuming this...
2. I go broke buying this...
and this...
3. Every minor twinge of minor discomfort sends me into an injury rundown -
Did you hear that click in my knee? Runner's knee.
Is that a small ache in my foot? Plantar fasciitis.
Oh my hip's off... Stress fracture.
Cramp in my shin? Shin splints.
Spasm? ITBS.
I think the next step is that I'll just get leprosy and one (or both) legs will just fall off before Saturday.
This is my brain...
This is my brain on taper...
Any questions?

Girl running shorts are always so much better than guys.
Wait, what does that say about my tastes in clothing? Crap.
Ha!!! This cracked me up. I'm on taper AGAIN and I totally will very soon think I'm dying.

Awesome purchase. I have a Garmin 310XT, but I have to get one of those cool 910XT. Enjoy it!
Hahaha! You are hilarious! you so have this in the bag. We can't wait to hear about your results and hope you survive the taper! More pizza and hamburgers to come! jealous of that part!
I am usually ready to enjoy taper by the time it comes... but that does not stop me from eating too much and spending too much money! LOL
Good luck this weekend, incase I don't catch you again!
Love you! I eat all that and buy all that, minus the watch, on a normal basis!!!!
Can't wait to hear how the race goes!
