Ended up taking today off. It wasn't really planned, but my legs just didn't recover from the 14 miler Sunday like I was hoping, so after 8 miles yesterday I decided to go with my body and against my brain and take the day off.
Hopefully, things are feeling good tomorrow and the rest of the week will play out as follows:
Thursday: 8x800 at 5k pace
Friday: Easy 7-8 mile run
Saturday: Easy 5 mile run
Sunday: 10 mile run
10 miles seems like a pretty easy run now, considering all the 8-9 mile runs over the last couple weeks and the 12-14 mile long runs.
Next week the taper really takes form with nothing over 6-7 miles during the easy days, a simple shakeout 3-2-1 track workout and only an 8 mile long run. Then its smooth sailing race week with two off days and nothing more than six miles all week before the race Sunday.
