very very slowly jogging, just 65min for 11.5K, hope will not affect Sunday Race. (target sub45min )

First of all, how to taper for the race is a very individual thing.  The best way to taper for any individual runner can be very different.

Having said that, assuming one's mileage is adequate.  The recommendation is to run slowly for a little the day before the race.  Several strides may also be good.  Resting for a few days immediately before the race may make your legs stiff and you may not be at your best shape on race day.

If you would like take some time off, it is better to take a day off 2 or 3 days before the race.

i am 56-58min for 10Km at 2009-04, & keep running 80-100Km per month then.
now, improve to 46-48min for 10Km.

Keep running is the good way to improve your performance. Trust me ching.

my next goal is 40-42min/10km, don't know if can achieve it within one year.

thanks for your info.
i agreed it is quite dependent for each individual, let see if 2 days rest is enough for me or not.

I joined HM this Sunday. The last run I made was on Wednesday (25/11) for 10KM. Take 3 days rest before the race.

My recommendation is to jog a little the day before the race.  Otherwise, legs will be stiff on race day, particularly if you take several days off.

You can run very slowly and it can be as short as a couple of k's
