Today my taper begins! That means that this week's long ride is ONLY 70 miles! And the long run is ONLY 14 miles! Yay!
So the gist of tapering is that at this point, I have gained all the fitness I can, and for the 3 weeks (3 WEEKS TILL IRONMAN!) leading up to the race the goal is to rest and maintain the fitness I have gained.
So next week's long ride and run will be 50 miles and 10 miles, and the week after that I am practically doing nothing!
Ironically, the swimming volume doesn't really decrease much at all.
I am going to have so much free time!
