T-t-t-taper

Hey there, just checking in! It's a busy day in Sassy Land. The manfriend has even been offering to do me favors like take my car in and now drive it up to my parents so my dad can fix the leaking break fluid issue.

Sometimes it's hard for a girl who tries to do it all to actually allow someone else to do something for me. Know what I mean? It just feels weird. Alas, I know he's doing it to try to help me out when things are busy and stressful.

Of the many work and fun related things that happened this week and are on the schedule for the weekend, I've been stressing about this whole not running thing. Not only are my legs not getting the pounding my head desires, but my body is not burning the cals it's used to and yet I still feel like eating everything under the sun.

The bottom line is, as I taper into the marathon, I'm going to focus on giving my body what it needs and not just what it wants. That means skipping a beer and dessert that I was tempted by last night. It also means that I'm focusing on getting some serious sleep and not staying up late to read and write blog posts.

What's got you stressed this week? And how is your taper going? Happy Friday!
