Marathon Month is here and you know what that means: taper time.

Before you throw a taper tantrum, consider the simple fact that you have to rest easy to be able to go hard. Recovery should be part of your plan and if you don't embrace it and approach it with the same focus and commitment you give the rest of your training (and racing), you can't meet your potential on race day.

This 13-minute video will help you embrace the taper by reducing any tension in your system so that you can recover effectively, rather than ending up halfway tense all the time.
