OK…three days to Nationals, my first. I’ve trained really hard for eight months and done all the right stuff: high yardage with a good mix of endurance, sprint, and race-pace training. I also have been running and doing some strength training. This past week I’ve cut out the running and weights and I’m doing light swim workouts working on starts, turns, finishes and pacing.
It’s taper time and I am going CRAZY!!! I’m not sleeping well, I want to eat too much, and this morning I was seriously considering going out in the yard and pulling out trees! (Now, that’s nuts!) How do I keep my head together during this critical time! I need advice on how to handle the psychological aspects of tapering!!
:confused:

Ande, here’s best I can do with regard to your tapering modification question. I was responding to the comments by you and Leonard regarding “intimate relations.” That's about as specific as I’m going to get!! :D
It seemed pretty clear to me!
