It's finally race week and the final installment of this video series, training for a fast 5k with Runna. We left off at the end of week 12, which was a bit of a taper week but still had a lot of big sessions. And in this episode, we’ll go over a few days of race week taper here in Crystal Lake and then hop on a plane, with my kids who are now on summer break, to go and visit my sister in Connecticut before heading over to New York for the big day.
