Tapering down before the marathon

Filed under: Running — arungupta @ 5:22 pm

With a slow pace of 9:25 for 22 miles the weekend before, and a better pace of 8:51 for 21 miles last weekend, my final push for marathon training is over. Now I’m tapering down and waiting for the days to pass. I might do few tempo runs and uphill but other than that I can afford to be lazy in the mornings :)

Here are some good articles on why and how to taper.
