#113: Getting through the marathon 'hump' weeks and navigating the taper
About this episode
Today's episode is all about the weeks leading up to the marathon taper and the taper itself. In these weeks you are pushing yourself to the limits trying to stay on the right side of the line. It's going to be tough!
However, these weeks won't last forever and you aren't the only one finding it tough. There's almost always a point in the cycle where I wonder why I train for marathons but it never usually lasts too long.
Listen to get tips on how to get through these peak weeks in marathon training and the best principles for tapering. Even better, download my free taper guide at www.therunningrules.com/taper
