  • In short: yes, but not like a taper for a longer distance. In general, I would not run the two days prior (maybe an easy 1-2 mile run the day before to loosen up) For the rest of the week, I would cut my mileage by 30%-50% There isn't any gain to your race performance by pushing it in those last 7 days.
