Ahhh, I heart the taper. It’s the only time – ever – I can lie on the couch, watch some quality TV and know for sure I’m not slacking.

A 10km warm-up followed by a half-marathon at my marathon race pace. That was yesterday’s plan. Too bad it kinda sucked.

Last month the IAAF voted to discount any female world record set during a mixed gender race. Translation — who cares if you’ve dedicated your life to the sport, if you’re a woman you can only set a world record at the Olympics or the World Championships. Forget Boston, Chicago, NYC, Berlin etc. Only men can do that.

Yesterday, in miserable weather, I ran the Toronto marathon a mere one minute and 34 seconds over my sub-4hour goal time.
