Speedwork and taper

Yesterday was 5x1k by time and effort out on the highway. Perfect coolish fall day, sunny, light wind. Ran hard at about 10k effort for 4:10 per interval, then walked jogged till HR below 130 and start next int at 6:00 spacing (so about 1:50 rests). Holding back a bit, don't want to pull anything now but felt great throughout. Later went to volleyball for 2hr that evening, tried to take it easy & no jumping (much).

Today, was my 1st day off midweek in months & felt like I was playing hookie (how old is that?) but feeling keen for tommorows short tempo run. Cool to be looking forward to a training run. Now need to think about and decide how I'm going to run/race the marathon...
