An enforced strong taper this week. Woke up Tuesday morning feeling flu'ey, and remembering the adage that you cant gain anything in last 2 weeks training, I ended up doing a total of 37km this week. It worked, and I felt fine by Friday
Tues pm - 8.3k @4:50 - very light jog down to watch intervals and then home again, and to wish sugar and sas good luck
Wed pm 7.7k@ 4:05 - a little too fast - supposed to be MP
Fri am 9k@ 4:13 - farewell run round herdsman
Sat pm 12k@ 4:18 - happier with this, after first 2k ran at MP without going too fast
Luckily I've been distracted by moving house this week - haven't thought much about the marathon. I need to get used to running through the mean streets of Dalkeith for the next year until the house is built.
Canberra forecast - fine 6-19 degrees C
Feeling OK - plantar fasciitis has flared for some reason in the right foot, but I can run through this
Good luck Sugar, Sas and Biscuitman
This week - ran 9k today, will probably only run twice more before the race.

Glad to hear the virus didn't last long. Going to be pretty hard for you living in the Bronx.
Cheers re the offer of advice on the ribs, will see how we go.
Call out if you want to catch up before you go, otherwise best of luck and go and nail the sub 3 and then enjoy your holiday.
Cheers
Good luck Epi - you should have a great run based on your preparation. Hope we both have good stories to tell in a few weeks.
All the best
Simon

The mean streets of Dalkeith - I like that... I can picture you doing intervals on the Nedlands foreshore!
