The Count Down Begins !

A nice rest day on Friday, coupled with a couple of beers and a nice red had me really relaxed.
Early to bed and a good sleep had me jumping up for the early morning run. (4am)
I planned about 20 k+ and at about 22k felt really good and comfortable so I bypassed home and did an extra 4k. 26k all up at a nice 5:40 pace. Wow the water looks really good that time in the morning. A bit of orange and blue and just the odd sound of a boat driving down the bay.
I did again have a wallaby hopping along the road edge with me but he was looking for a break in the fence to get away from me.
Sunday morning I put in a very easy 8k and spotted a coolrunner on my way home but I was so deep in thought that it didn't register till I was about 500m away from him. I had a busy day planned so there was no chasing him down just for a chat. But I am sure I will see him again.
The count down has begun and with a week to go I feel like I am running on the spot.
I will rest tonight or a little run ?!? hmmmmmmm .....
I hate tapers !
