Tapering away
Pottered down to Bedlam Bay Oval a bit after 6pm. Very fresh evening, ran in a long sleeve top and shorts, and was right on the cusp of comfort.
Felt like a million bucks. Absolutely no resistance in the legs, and ticked over through the half hour with good form and no pain or stiffness. If I can keep this feeling for Sunday we could be on for something quite special. Was in a pretty good mood, too, singing along to the iPod and visualising success on Sunday. Not deliberately, just came into mind. Seem to be getting into a good place mentally and physically.
Did some gentle drills afterwards, which showed a little stiffness around the right hip, but no pain. Massage with Easy Tiger tomorrow, plus a short, comfortable speed session in the evening.

Vat,
Good luck for the weekend. Hope you achieve all that you have been training so hard for.
Enjoy yourself. This is the fun part!
It sounds like everything is coming together as it should. Lots of luck for the weekend... not that you need luck, you've done all the hard work.
Craig,
If I don't speak to you in the next few days I wisk all the luck on Sunday. It a big goal you set a long time agao and it appears you are as ready as you will be. My thoughts are with you. I don't need to say run a smart race by staying with your race plan to 30/32 k and then give it all you have.
