MT W17

This is the final week of training. Your race is this weekend! Take the three days of rest on the schedule and do short, easy runs on two other days.

As you're heading down this final stretch to the race, know that it's natural to start having doubts about your training and anxiety about race day. Try not to worry. Even if your training didn’t go perfectly, if you followed the plan most of the time, chances are that you’re fit to reach your marathon goals. Don’t try to cram in one extra hard workout; it will deplete the energy you need for the race. Just try to get some sleep, eat well, and make sure your plans are set for this weekend. Try to stick to the same routine that's worked for you during training; this is not the time to try out yoga or rock climbing. Whatever you do, don't try anything new.
