Training Week 7/15/13

This is a taper week for the 7/27 Catocting 50k.
7/16/13 - Ran the 6 mile loop in 43:03 and did a 1.5 mile cool down.
7/17/13 - Ran 9.3 at the cove.  Up hi dee ho, Brushy mtn fire road, and back on 4-gorge.  Ran a few out and back waiting for others.  Wore my HR monitor and tried to keep my HR below 150.
7/19/13 - Ran 7 miles with a HR monitor keeping my HR below 140.
7/20/13 - Ran 9.5 miles with a HR monitor keeping my HR below 140.
7/21/13 - Road biked up Roselawn and Sugarloaf then hit the flats for a 19.3 mile ride.
Total for the week;  33.3 miles running and 19.3 on the road bike.

My legs feel a little heavier than I would like but I figure that's the pain of tapering.  There always seems to be something that makes you feel like you are training wrong.   This is why I decided to wear the HR monitor this week.
