The Taper

So, now that we're within two weeks of the race, we're tapering down the milage, which is good because it's cold as the proverbial witch's body part, and it's hard for this Texas girl to even go out of doors.  But we're still running short runs, trying to achieve some kind of optimal level of athleticism for the big day.
The kids and I leave to go down to Houston this coming Wednesday, where hopefully we can defrost for a few days before the race.  Matt arrives on Friday night, and our plan is to spend Saturday on the couch as much as possible, resting our legs.  After that, the rubber meets the road so to speak.
