Here's a short, decent article on tapering, from Pete Pfitzinger. I've read his book, Road Racing for Serious Runners, which is worth reading. It's relatively short and full of practical advice. I grabbed the internet article from here: Zeke's blog.
My man Gebr. is running another marathon this year and has said for the first time that the full marathon is now his focus. Gebrselassie targets Fukuoka Marathon in December

I made the mistake of watching "Endurance" last night, which I'd TIVO'd this past weekend. Watching Haille run at what looks to be a gentle effort while seeing the landscape scream by in a blur makes me wonder if I can call what I do running at all.
Great footage of the '96 Olympic 10K though. He and Tergat look SO young.
I've seen "Endurance" as well. You're right, that opening scene of him running along the terrain, and the way he becomes "one" with it, is amazing......
