A: When your running’s going so well you don’t want to run less.
A: When you tell everyone you’re tapering but really aren’t.
A: When you fear rest and avoid it at all costs.
A: When it’s a tapir.
A: When you really need to get a grip and STOP RUNNING GINA.
I ran 6 miles this morning. In my defense, the plan said 7. In accusation, I could easily have done 4.
My plan seems to have a 2 week taper, rather than a 3 week one. Is this ok? I feel good, but I know I need to slow down. There are 31 miles in the plan for next week, then 10 the final week. Too much? Help!
Not a Jogger 
You have my sympathy, I hated taper! My plan had 23 and 9 for the last two weeks – and I’m more a beginner than you are, so off a lower average weekly mileage.
This is the pot calling the kettle black, but relax, you’re as ready as you’re going to be.
Best of luck 🙂
