I taper for ultras. Don't want to be doing a long run at the end of a normal training week so 2 weeks out the intensity starts to drop, and the week leading up to race day is no hard efforts, max 10k and probably last run on Tues/weds with race on weekend. Seems to work for me but tapering is very individual.
Race to the stones in 19 days. I’m on 600 miles for the year so far - wondering if people tend to cruise into these ultras on a normal schedule or taper into them? Just looking to get to the finish and have sometimes felt a bit rusty after a taper but not sure what the wisdom is. Also anyone else doing RTTS on here?
