... I've been feeling something like this since Sunday. Today, however, I'm feeling better again and I'm in a surprisingly good mood again.
last taper week before Roth
I have not logged the training of the last week, it was more like a light movement therapy. The last key session was on the Tuesday before the race. Thirty minutes of full throttle on the bike and then a maximum of 15 minutes of running. Beginners should be careful here, however, as the resulting sore muscles may even last until race day, and that is of course not the point of the exercise.
After the unit on Tuesday, I also bring the muscle tone out of the body (sauna, massage, stretching) so that the muscles can completely recover. From Thursday afternoon, however, you have to build up your muscle tone again (short sprints, small training units with short competition loads and cold), because otherwise you will not be 100% ready to perform on the day of the competition.
Altogether it was probably 6-7 hours of training in the taper week.
rest well!
