I warn everyone that I am tapering and will be grumpy. Unfortunately all my runs have gotten faster and more intense because there are less of them. Probably not such a good thing. Double tapering is probably worse! Best of luck, and just remember the lady in the Chicago marathon. Grab a sandwich before going to the hospital! lolAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5914274391886589942.post-15928533359840725262011-10-03T16:27:04.525-07:002011-10-03T16:27:04.525-07:00look at that cute belly clock! sorry to be SO BEH...look at that cute belly clock! sorry to be SO BEHIND - i think your due date has actually passed - but this was a great analogy!Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10004930640458109084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5914274391886589942.post-70186652103537580982011-10-02T09:43:45.529-07:002011-10-02T09:43:45.529-07:00Just a few more days until you begin a new chapter...Just a few more days until you begin a new chapter in your life! I am so excited for you! I can't give too much input on this subject since I haven't tapered, I have completely stopped!

Remember that it could still be a while, so you're not so anxious. I wish I had anyway, as I went beyond the 40 weeks.<br /><br />Good luck!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5914274391886589942.post-66255568027205440382011-09-30T06:53:26.087-07:002011-09-30T06:53:26.087-07:00You are going to be a great Mama Jen!

Just wait, you will have the natural Mama instinct and know exactly what your baby needs. :) <br />ps I always doubt taper too and convince myself it's actually hurting me rather than helping....:0Adriennehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18441942584802356510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5914274391886589942.post-1859585885161724752011-09-23T09:15:39.419-07:002011-09-23T09:15:39.419-07:00Oh, Jen.

In contrast, running 10K still ultimately kicks my tail.
