<p>Really burst into taper mode this week. Trying to keep intensity high and mileage low.  Less than one week out now from the Indy Monumental.  I wish I could taper my eating....</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Anyhoo, here's the week:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>M - 7.2, 7:50 pace (HMP)</p>
<p>T - 3.8, w 6x400 strides</p>
<p>W - Rest</p>
<p>Th - 4.7, w/ 5x800 @ 3:27</p>
<p>F - Rest</p>
<p>Sa - 10.5 - 7 easy, w last 3.5 at MP</p>
<p>Su - 5.5 easy</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Total: 31.7... only 3 runs on the calendar this week before the big day on Saturday!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Good luck to all racers this weekend!</p>
<p> </p>

<p>Hey all,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>It's the final week of taper here too. Not much on tap running wise, just a few miles here and there to stay sharp. The bigger concerns are to eat right, sleep well, take care of my body and keep life as low-stress as possible.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I tuned up yesterday at the Marine Corps 10k (report <a href="http://cmjhawk86.wordpress.com/2010/11/01/the-road-to-nyc-week-14-and-the-final-preps/" target="_blank">posted</a>) and it went pretty well. My "high" goal was to try and break 40 and I came pretty close, going 40:45, good for 60th OA, and 5th in the 45-49 AG. Heading into next weekend, and given how far I've come after my "slump" earlier in the cycle, I'm very satisfied with the result.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As for Sunday, while I'm confident, I'm still going to set a somewhat conservative goal of 3:20. But if things are going really well after about 15 or so, I may make a little mid-race adjustment. <img alt="" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/wink.gif" title=""></p>
<p> </p>
<p>swallen - good luck in Indy!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Last week (34 miles total):</p>
<p> </p>
<p>M 10/25 - 14 miles on trail near home, final "long" run of cycle</p>
<p>Tu 10/26 - easy 7 near work during afternoon</p>
<p>W 10/27 - 3.6 TM miles w/ some light intervals @ 10k pace (200-500-800-500-200); core afterwards</p>
<p>Th 10/28 - 50 minutes elliptical</p>
<p>F 10/29 - 5k easy jog through neighborhood in evening</p>
<p>Sa 10/30 - rest</p>
<p>Su 10/31 - MCM 10k, 40:45</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Happy running all...I can't wait until Sunday morning! <img alt="" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/wav.gif" title=""></p>
