One Day, One Week

My blog sequence is a bit chaotic but the thoughts happened in the right order! Days right now are a bit chaotic to say the least. Planning stages are in full swing for holiday events, special sessions, 2012 fitness plans, not to mention redoing websites, and photos and all that goes with that needing to be right from the beginning as much as possible.
Toss in, new employees, new applicants, pay period end, and daily real time and the days are flying until I leave.
My head is feeling it! I don't have headaches ordinarily. I woke with one yesterday, couldn't move without it hurting all day and went to be so early that toddlers were still up. Still there today but better.
I have a last ride on my bike today and then haul it to Bike World to take down, then ship- tonight yet if I can or tomorrow morning if not.
The hope is it will be there and ready on Thursday next week so I can take it for a short ride.
I'd mentioned to my friend Bill that I don't like taper so well. He flipped back that he loves it. Hearing that helps for some reason. Right now I'm thinking it's a good thing there is one so I have time to get everything else done. But I haven't found a lot more time for rest which is also a part of it.

I'll have a ride today, a run tomorrow and a full swim on Saturday. Then things really reduce. I may need to go in and ride spinning bikes on Sunday to fit in another bike ride.

Funny thing is during this taper I'm having all kinds of little aches and pains I didn't have last year. An occasional knee pang or shoulders and neck tension, all telling me that I've put in a lot of time the last couple years. I'll be ready to go I believe on race day (though it would be nice if the water temperature would stop dropping and suddenly raise by five degrees or so!) and I'll be ready for a rest afterwards.
