So with the glorious beauty of 'taper week' (ie. easing off on the training until stopping completely a few days out) comes the equally rapturous experience of 'carbo-loading')It's just such an odd, bewilding experience to be basically given licence to eat - and in many instances eat things we would never have touched before. We've been roughly following this kind of approach, but still - being TOLD to drink soft drinks, sports drinks and cordial, all the while snacking on relatively refined carbohydrates is just an eery form of bliss :)
I'm sure the pain to come will be greater of course, but for now we're enjoying it immensely. Another hot-cross bun anyone???
