There’s really only one thing worse than tapering:

Failing to train due to time constraints imposed upon you by someone else.

Today was the most invidious day I can recall in recent memory.

A simple 5 mile run this morning, followed by work until 9:30 this evening.

I got so pissed off at myself, that my nose started to bleed, and I couldn’t stop it. Dinner sucks. Not training sucks.

Today I saw a glimpse of hell.
