So, I would like to race two HIMs in october. One is supposed to be a really difficult race. the other, I’ve been told, is flat and not too hard. Now, two races isn’t too difficult because there three weeks apart, but they both are both races longer than I have been training for. Is it a bad idea to race them both? I have never done HIM and I think it would be a blast to race for a long time. Any thoughts?
If you haven’t been training for a HIM they’re both going to be difficult but what the hell, go for it. What’s the worst that’s going to happen??
Have fun and enjoy the races. Just make sure you pay attention to your body so as to not hurt yourself. If your confident in covering the distance at an enjoyable pace I’d say let’er fly.
