Feeling the Urge
Written by admin on November 12, 2008 – 9:17 am -It’s now Taper, and today, Wednesday, I’m feeling the urge to explode. I’ve been through quite a few tapers, and always settle in just nicely. But I can’t quite sit still this go around. I’m feeling eager to go out and run…bike…swim, do something. I’ve listened to other athletes talk about this time, the Taper, and wondered why they couldn’t just relax. Now I know.
JUST….WANT….TO….RACE!!!!

I wanted so bad to qualify for Boston…I had tried 27 times!! 27 BJ?!?! and on October 6th, 2006 - I did it, with 4 minutes to spare. 3:36… and you know what I did the week leading up to that race - RESTED!! Your day is here BJ - you get your own 10/6/06 next weekend. Kona baby, Kona. I believe in you. Mike believes in you, your wife, your friends, your family and Coach.
