Hey everyone! My A event in coming up at the end of April and I feel like my fitness is spectacular right now…which has me a little worried. I still have 27 days until my event. My current plan has me doing a recovery week this week, followed by two good weeks of training and then a taper for the week of the event.
Am I worrying for nothing?
Hey there!
Peak fitness can last from about 1 week to 1 month depending on various factors. This article has some more info if you’re interested:
If you haven’t started tapering yet, I wouldn’t worry too much! You’ll still get a couple of weeks of “sharpening” workouts in, and then your volume will drop off a bit before your goal event. I think it sounds like you’re on the right track here – your fitness is mostly built up at this point. Now it’s all about sharpening what you’ve worked so hard to gain as you approach your event. 
Good luck and feel free to let us know if you have any other questions!
