A week out fro the Highgate Harriers Night of the 10,000m PBs track race, I start my taper and give a little insight into each day's training, fitting it around work and life. Tapering isn't always fun, but when you've got a big race planned it makes all the difference to freshen up the leggies!

I really appreciate this look into pre-race tapering! I have trouble sleeping the night before a race - in fact one of my best half-marathons I was sick and had a headache the night before, convinced I would not be able to do it. Woke up feeling fine and PR'd. In regards to sitting all day: I know it's not cheap but have you considered getting a sitting/standing desk (that elevates)? I've had back problems most of my life and one of the potential causes I've read about is called "gluteal amnesia" (see Dr Stuart McGill). Basically from sitting all day, everyday, our bodies "forget" how to properly activate the glutes. Actually you probably don't have this issue being a pro runner, but I wish our lifestyles didn't involve so much sitting. Sorry for the ramble, cheers!

I always found a "typical" taper didn't work for me. I seemed to work better of reducing miles in tandem with FAST work- preferring to stay familiar with pain and pace ! FAST road 5k 3 days out and quick 300's 2 days out- easy bike ride (hour) day before... Used the same system for races 10k to Half mar'- on or off road.
@PhilyBowden
@PhilyBowden 2 года назад
Interesting! Yeah it’s definitely one of those things that’s very individual so always best to do whatever makes you feel good! Adding the bike is a great idea as well to offload the legs a little

@PhilyBowden 2 года назад
Basically any stress or aches and pains from hitting a run or session really hard, when your legs feel like junk the next day (heavy and tight). That’s the whole idea of the taper really is to ease off so that the legs feel fresh for the important race days 😄
