2 half marathons within 2 weeks.

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?
