Well I'm still in my indecisive, taper or not taper frame of mind, so I went out running today without a specific distance goal. Taper mileage would be 6-8, while the original mileage this week was 12, and I was flipping it with next week's, which is 10. Long story, I know. Anyway, I ran through Golden Gate Park and around Strawberry Hill a few times and ended up back home just shy of 9 miles, with an overall pace of 10'30". The training plan called for PMP + 45-60, so I was actually a bit fast, but gosh I was tired when it was over.
My bodyworker taped my IT band this week, and that seemed to work well. My IT band did not hurt in the slightest bit, my gosh my hips were tired. I think this might be because they were actually working as they are supposed to instead of relying on the muscles further down the leg. So that part was good at least. But I've got to get these tiredness issues figured out - I'm still hoping it's diet. And someday maybe I will fix it.
