- Menu Planning. I have more time for planning out meals during taper. Of course, part of that is because I think about food ALL the time--day and night. Dinner is planned for the rest of the week with meals best for carb loading.
- Social Networking. In the last two weeks, I have spent more time on Facebook and the Loop than ever before. And that is saying something! Just think of all the people I can encourage that way!
- Petting the dogs. After all, I am spending lots of time sitting. They love the extra attention!
- Manicures. With all the extra time and anxiety, my nails are getting manicured regularly. Of course, I tend to pick at my nails when nervous so I don't know that I can really call it a "manicure."
Hmmm, I am going to have to keep thinking of positives! I am rested and ready to run. I am finally getting excited. I am feeling more confident. My plan is to have not real plan, but to relax and enjoy the run. Stay slow and easy to start and finish strong. Marathon minus 3 days...

It sounds like a good boredom is setting in. The kind that actually gets the little things done. I have a long run planned for when you are out running your "little" race on Sunday. I am still thinking I might try to sneak down and watch part of the race. Just stay away from ERG's chocolate chips. Enjoy your week "off" and give the pups a rub behind the ears for me.
Wow, I'm only back up to running 13 miles a week and I still don't have well manicured nails. Maybe that's what I should have been doing during all of that down time. Good luck!
I would get a pedicure too! :)) Sounds good to me...Also, I love it when I actually meal plan. Life gets so much easier.
