Call me crazy.
HEY CRAZY!
I've probably mentioned it before but yes I am running my 2nd half marathon in a week. Which means that I am running 2 half marathons within 2 weeks. A little cuckoo some might say while others may say it's genius. Training once but getting two 13.1's out of it.
I will admit, I'm a little nervous but I've already decided I'm not going to focus on anything specific.
I'm not going in trying to beat my current PR.
I just want to enjoy the race and be injury free.
This race is the Women's Running Half - St. Pete.
I'm really excited because I have heard such great things about this race and I LOVE the fact that it's geared towards women!
So how have I been recovering and training for this next race you might ask?
Week 1 - Post Race.
Sunday: Allstate Half Marathon + lots of stretching
Monday: 15 - 20 minute relaxed walk + more stretching
Tuesday: Complete rest
Wednesday: 2 mile easy run
Thursday: 15 minute weight training
Friday: 4 mile run - kind of easy
Saturday: Rest (was suppose to cross train but um yeah...)
Sunday: 5 - 6 mile run (about to head out soon!)
Week 2 - Post Race / Pre 2nd Half
Monday: Rest + foam rolling
Tuesday: 2 - 3 miles
Wednesday: 20 mins of running + 15 min weights
Thursday: Rest
Friday: 20 minutes running
Saturday: Walk around the expo
Sunday: RACE DAY!
So I'm basically just tapering all over again.
Hopefully everything works out and I have another good race!
Have you ever run 2 half's or marathon within such short timespans?!
How was your experience?
