I started my taper with a short recovery run yesterday. I felt pretty slow, stiff and somewhat sore. It's amazing what 23 miles will do to you! Fortunately, I "only" have about 60K/37mi to run this week. 18 days to go!

November 1st, huh? My marathon debut keeps getting pushed back!
nice way to reach for the goal!!
I SOOO need the rocovery sock but in tights. need the entire leg covered. What I am finding is that they are $$$$$. Still searching.
Wow-good for him-very disciplined and right on pace! When you're that fast it appears you run pretty much on your own-must be a cool feeling.
Many thanks for waiting and for taking the photo.

I haven't tried the recovery socks but my free Wright socks arrived and I like the double layer-I didn't want to try them out for the first time during a race though.

Nice! Congrats to your hubby! That's a super speedy time! I keep trying to get my boyfriend to try out recovery socks, but he refuses . . . he thinks I look ridiculous in mine (I tried to explain that he wouldn't have to get hot pink ones; he didn't seem to care). Guess what one of his Christmas presents will be? :)
