Take it easy today; maybe hit the pool and swim an easy 1500-2000 yards, with no interval work. Just cover some basic yardage but don't do any pace. If you feel you need the rest, take it. But don't do anything that will tire your legs; no Stairmaster, jogging, or Lifecycle. These next two weeks prior to race day are essential in conserving energy, and your leg muscles expend the most. Stay off them when you can.
