Has anyone out there completed the double of IMCDA and IMLP back to back? I have registered for both next year as I figured one training session for two races would work out nicely (I typically recover pretty well). Would love to hear any comments for those that have done the back to back.
If for some reason I get squeezed financially or with work or the wife, which of the two would you choose if you had to choose to do just one, CDA or LP???
I have done both back to back and I didn’t have any problems doing so. I went into it thinking of CDA as a training race and LP to race it. My CDA race went horrible and I had a horrible run, which was probably a good thing which didn’t allow my body to get totally trashed with all the pounding. I had a good transition period and by the time I got to LP I was good to go.
If I had to pick only one too do, it would be without a doubt LP. It is a tougher course but it is so much nicer and the people and the crowds are amazing. Not that CDA is horrible, I would probably never go back there again. LP I can see myself going back there several times eventhough I know my times might not be the best compared to other locations.
