Taper Madness

Since the 20-miler my tapering has definitely been messing with me. The first week my legs were feeling extremely sluggish and sore. This week my legs feel great, but with the extreme decrease in milage I'm finding I have a lot of excess energy and it is difficult to fall asleep at night. So basically I am suffering from all of the typical taper madness symptoms. I am about to head out now for a 2-miler...wow, I honestly cannot remmember the last time I went running and only went 2 miles. This is my last run before the Chicago Marathon in 3 days! I am definitely ready for it and I could not be more excited =D
