Half-marathon day before full?

disney next year - the half is saturday , full sunday. first time they are on different days. good idea I think.

they are encouraging people to do both - is that nuts or what?

Good lord, WHY? I can’t think of a single good reason to do a 1/2 the day before a full, especially if one’s goal is to “race” the full. Even if one were just going for a finish however, I think it’s a dumbass idea. And not the kind of dumbass that I’d normally do, either. :wink:

Mercy!

I would do both if I was there.

It depends on what sort of person you are. We push ourselves in different ways. I like the longer distances - I will never be a sprinter but get me out running and I will go for hours.

We are Slowtwitchers here - we are supposed to like endurance!

well I agree, but everything I read says to taper and rest before a marathon…
