I love tapering :)
My legs are coming around at the exact right time. I am SOO lucky!! Today’s workout was just downright fun :). I joined the Carleton women for some tempo on the track – their workout was tempo miles, mine was 3×2 miles at tempo, with the rough goal for tempo at 5:50 (but main goal…
Seriously Unmotivated

Monday I met up with Brian at Anytime Fitness to do a 9 mile…
