    I'm in the same boat...and...I hereby propose a toast to tapering ! Best of luck with your training schedule, you'll get lots of support and motivation here. Cheers !

    Taper is fine... you have the excitement of a race. But recovery week ... thats sucks! :) Thats what I am in right now ... this forced rest is going to kill me!
