Taper week

We are in the taper period of training. These 8 months have gone by so fast, throughout them I kept thinking I always had so much time left to catch up on training, but that point has definitely passed.
I guess at this point I'm as ready as I'll ever be (this year). I'm still nervous about the bike - the longest ride I've done is 54 miles, and I'm scared the course will be too hilly.
Wade said during our bikes we should think to ourselves - how do I feel about running a half marathon right now. And if the answer is not positive, then slow down. However - even at this point, I don't think I eve thing running a half sounds easy, even before a bike or swim... But I'm sure I'll survive.
I just need to make it to the bike cut off in time- and then force myself to just keep running, just keep running. No walking! At least it will be flat!

So, Go team!
