I would have thought a taper would have been easy. 3 miles seemed really difficult. I never could get into a grove. The rain earlier today and the 80 degree heat might have had something to do with it. I thought cold humid days were bad. Hot humid ones are worse.<br><br>
Sunday's the big day. My first marathon.<br><br>
67.6 miles for the month a little short of my goal, but hey, no injury plaguing me for this month. Missed a few 5 and 8 mile runs because of weather and one because of a wedding, not mine.

Cliff - Taper is always rough - I always feel sluggish, but I am fine come the big day. I wish you cool dry weather for the Big D marathon!<br><br>
I did 5 recovery this lunch and weights + jump rope tonight and then walked 3 miles at @ 8% incline.

must be the lack of a grove. It usually takes me 3 miles to find it.
