All pumped up and nowhere to ...........run

In taper now, and while I know I need the rest, its not knowing what to do with all the energy I have thats a problem. I should be used to this by now, with this being my 3rd marathon, but its always the same.
Paranoia steps in slowly to take the place of the euphoria of getting this far (man I should have been a writer), always afraid that I will injure myself, or eat something bad. So I now have slipped completely into the geriatric old man mode, heres what I mean
I sleep at 10:30 and wake at 5
Walk real slowly cause I dont want to stub a toe
Get real picky about what I eat
Get all worked up about nothing
Well I guess if I have as much energy when I really get old Id be a happy man. Also really happy that I dont have a girlfriend now, cant imagine what it would be to live with myself. But then its only a week to get by.
Reminded my mentee to make similar adjustments in his training, and hope that he listens, though Im not really sure he will. If i'm a hot head driven by the exuberence of youth, hes "hot head" personified. Just hope he will have a good race with me.
6 days and counting ........
