Taper time

Taper week should be renamed second guess week, or stress week.  Here I have all this energy and time from not running as much and I spend it worrying if I am ready or not.   I think I get even more nervous now than I did when I was younger running arguably more important races, because now I know I have fewer chances to get it right, and it takes a lot more out of me to try.   It is taking a lot of faith to trust my training and believe that I am ready to run. I guess we will find out Saturday!
