Has a half in a week, and growing fear on my original goal of PR. Maybe I should back off a minute or two or three which would still give me a sub 3 in December. Hmmmm...

But what about your goal of going sub 3 and PRing in each race? Already shooting that down?Jerry wrote:Has a half in a week, and growing fear on my original goal of PR. Maybe I should back off a minute or two or three which would still give me a sub 3 in December. Hmmmm...

Re: TAPER MADNESS!!!!
It's way too far out for a forecast to be anywhere near accurate. Heck, the evening before I ran Cape Cod, they were forecasting snow, rain and gusts up to 60 mph! It didn't snow or rain, and the gusts never got worse than about 40 mph!Michele \"1L" Keane wrote:Taper was screwed this morning with the presence of that evil white stuff from the sky.

Re: TAPER MADNESS!!!!
NWS forecast for Sunday in DC:
Sunday Mostly sunny, with a high near 58. West wind 6 to 9 mph.
Although it'll be chilly in the chute for the start, I'm perfectly happy with that!!!

Yeah I meant all. I was distracted by restraining myself from making political remarks along with Jerry.

For the record, Jerry was making a professional remark as an IT guy.Julie wrote:Yeah I meant all. I was distracted by restraining myself from making political remarks along with Jerry.
Btw, weather looks good for the next Sunday for me too. Not sure I have the same or better fitness than 2 years ago when I PR'd.

Re: TAPER MADNESS!!!!
I'm looking at a low of 65 and a high of 79 with a 1/4" of rain on Sunday, for me. Good thing I'm not going for a PR.
