Just relax about the crap feeling. It's not just the lack of running but the bug itself knocks you around. Give it a few days to a week to come back to full strength. Then, marathon watch out!
oo-er Hope it all pulls together for you Saint Clairie. Believe me though, these taper-things are sent to mess with your mind. I hate it too, and the paranoia blows out the top of the richter scale a week or two in.
I agree with Steve. Its not the non-running, its the stupid lactose intolerence thingy.
DON'T PUSH YOURSELF!!!! Recover from it properly and then you will have a great last week leading into the marathon. That will be so important not just physically, but mentally as well.
I know its gonna be hard to do but you would be telling me the exact same thing wouldn't you :-)
Keep calm grasshopper. Just relax. A valium and a good lie down ok. Just do some easy stuff until the day. You have all the miles in the legs so you can't lose the fitness.

Hopefully that's the simple answer to it :)

You'll be right Clairie - you've run aboout a billion miles at warp speed preparing for this thing - a little restie-poohs aint gonna hurt.
Just get yourself well ;-)
Settle Petal. You are making me nervous. I have enough to worry about with Tesso without worrying about you too.
No, don't say that!
