Re: DIVAS Half Marathon
I am! I give you major credit for that schedule!
I ran 2 miles this morning. I'm taking off tomorrow (we're visiting family tonight into tomorrow).
Then I plan on running Tues, wed, and Thursday. Probably 3 miles Tues and Wed and 2 on Thursday. Then rest friday and saturday.
I've always read during tapering you should only run 1/3 of your usual mileage. I usually run 25-30 miles per week so I figured 9-10 miles this week would be ideal. I'm also on vacation this week and in Florida so its super hot.

I'm doing the 5k with my SIL and 3 of my cousins. We are all so not ready for a full or even half marathon!

Re: DIVAS Half Marathon
I wouldn't run a tempo run on Thursday. This is taper time and you should be resting your body with easy runs (especially only days away). It's hard to do, but it will help you on race day.
I paid the price at Cow Harbor from my marathon schedule.

Re: DIVAS Half Marathon
I've been nursing an injury so I'm taking it especially easy this week. Might just do a quick 3 miles or something later this week.
