Hi Mike,

I recommend pausing the training plan and following week 12 for the 7 days prior to the race. Miss out the week 12 day 3 strength training session to ensure you don’t have any fatigue in your muscles on race day. Race on week 12 day 6 and take a day off on day 7 for recovery.

That will lead you in to the race fresh and ready to race.
