A good, hard, humid 6-mile run this morning. I did NOT want to get up and go, but after putting it off for so long P layed down the law and made me leave. Thanks, P!

I pushed pretty hard. Did my usual neighborhood route, which has some good inclines and a couple steep hills. I was drenched in sweat by the end.
The marathon is less than 3 weeks away, so I am officially "tapering." The problem is, I haven't done a whole lot of weekday running the entire time, so my tapering will just be like normal weeks, minus super long runs.
I will have to recap you on my 15.5-miler, 18-miler and 20-miler sometime this week. Can't believe I've run that much...
