Last 20 miler of the campaign completed successfully.
I’m surprised how much the plan eases off next week so I’m planning to add some extra miles. Dropping from 80 this week to 50 next seems a bit drastic.
Don’t rush back too soon brunski, this is the chance I’ve been waiting for to finally catch up with you in the mileage league 😁

This week I'll aim to do no more than 75% of the past few weeks average mileage Chris so around 75 miles though potentially a few less if I can do so and stay sane. I think with a two week taper you do need a bit of freshening up. Next week I'll try and keep my mileage below 40 which will be a challenge.

12 mp miles for me today with a tempo one on the middle. MP pace just bang on for sub 3, but heart rate a beat or two higher than I would have liked. Looks like I am on the borderline.

I think I’m in a similar boat as jda, my legs have felt fairly fresh this campaign, certainly a lot better than last year. I’ll probably do around 65 miles this week and then really ease off.
Sounds promising baz, did you get race shoes for this attempt?

You're still in hard training Baz - by the time you've tapered those couple of extra bpm will have gone.

You'll definitely be passing me Chris (don't worry about that 😂), only 7 miles behind for 2018 now. The taper is starting early for me, unintentionally, but best case scenario I'm back running toward the middle/end of the week, then I'll work out what I want to do without trying to catch up any lost days.
Baz, keep going mate, nearly there....I was banking on the taper helping my bpms, think you should do the same!

Thanks Lee, was a surprise to get the nomination, I'm a little embarrassed if I'm honest ☺️
...Would enjoy answering any questions though, I could do that bit!

No running for a week for me now. Pain behind my right kneecap. Seems to be easing a bit so I'll try a gentle one tonight but it looks like I may end up being a spectator in Rotterdam. Very frustrating but I guess there are bigger problems in the world...
