I would like to know from you , how do you taper before a long run.

I'm doing my first 50m run in four weeks, although I have already done two 100km runs. The training for those two 100k's was somewhat chaotic. Each time I realized that I was behind and ramped up quickly with a few back to back runs that left me with some injury. Therefore, tapering was never really a question. I would stop running, switch to bike rides, and hope for the best.

Any suggestions/Advice?
