You could call it tapering, but you only taper off a big blast of training. That I have not been doing due to a number of various reasons, mostly fickle.
However, what running I have got done has been Ok including a very nice run last Saturday over Mt Stromlo & through the old Blewitts Forest. It was a beautiful morning with others out in West Stromlo doing an obstacle & fitness course. Looked like fun in the mud & water.

I am hoping my bike riding will keep me in the game at CBR 100 km this weekend.
Plus, the hills and mountains I hope will make up for the lack of distance. The climb up Mt Stromlo on the mountain bike tracks was easy & fun.
I'm actually not expecting to finish the full distance & will be quite happy to get past half way. Anything close to 75 kms will be a surprise & a bonus.
