Taper and 90-minutes of Heaven

Taper has started and I am starting to feel a little more rested. For the past two weeks I have been desperately trying to get in to get a massage. Sadly, August is the busiest time at work and all of the massages have been booked solid. Today was the day. It started off with a nice Masters Swim at 6am followed by a 90-minute massage using hot stones :)....it felt so good. I could feel all the muscles releasing from the past few weeks of hard work. I just have to get out for a nice 60-minute run now. This weekend is a short 3-hour ride and a brief 90-minute run. This taper is going to feel so good!
