A nice exchange with NB4 on RW forum....the runner I respect the most on RW.
TWW1980:
NB4 Funny....you mention my compulsive habits (you are correct on them) and I wake up and decide it is time to take a day off work....so my schedule is changed......I think the M & M deal has got in my mind also....have to buy a bag each day lately....I really look forward to your marathon if you do it....we have the same view toward running.....miles stay steady year round for the love of running....I am gearing my mind toward a competitive marathon in early '08....hoping Nick will be ready and do one also at that time...to me it will just be more like a faster long run....I like the prep more than the race....always.
NB4:
tww: I'm looking to the last Sunday in Sept for a marathon. Think it's time to begin a taper?
TWW1980:
So you somehow snuck 60 past us....not fair NB4...I like your low key approach to you probable end of the month marathon.....but with the amount of years you have been running....you know exactly what to do.....taper?....by my calculation you would be 17 days out.....I would guess your Sunday long run would be your last and then you will be going into a taper....hope your friend commits....I know you guys will have a ball for the 26.2.
NB4:
I'd say you're right on the money. Are you sure we're not twins separated at birth?
