Training Advice/Discussion

I have secured entry into the Twin Cities 10 mile and hoping for a sub 1:10 (yes, laugh you fast guys) but there is a nearby half-marathon 2 weeks before that would probably be my only chance for a fall half. My focus is to do well at the 10 -mile. What do you all think~your advice from experience would be appreciated?! What would my training be like the 2 weeks before the 10 mile coming off the half?

You should be alright doing both. Rule of thumb is one day rest/easy for every mile you raced until you will be ok to race again. The half will get you fired up and ready for the 10 miler and will get some junk outa your legs too. I say go for it. Good luck.

re: shortshorts

could always use the half as a progression run and race day test
