The goal now that taper had begun is to keep up the normal intesity, but cut milage.  I did my hill sprints workout today with a shorter warm up and cool down. 

1 mile warm up

5 laps = 15 hill sprints.  Approximately 2 miles of sprints with easy jogging in between

0.5 mile cool down.

Total run 7 miles

Nice run!!! I love taper time. It always feels so good to cut back on the miles.
