Half Maintenance?

[FireWoman]

After running my first Half at Tink, in a few weeks, I will be running more half marathons throughout the year. So, January, May, November, December.

I was invited to do TWO in May, back to back, but that's not healthy, correct?

So in the mean time, how would you keep up your endurance?

TIA!

Two back to backs-you mean two in one weekend? or one each weekend? Either way, you could do it.
If it is two in one weekend, you just need to throw a couple back to back runs in your training so you know how you feel to run on tired legs. Don't forget plenty of people run back to back in the Goofy Challenge(half on Saturday and Full on sunday).

As for maintenance, I keep my long runs on the weekend up. I usually do a 3 week rotation of 6, 8, 10-then repeat again.

Very doable

They two in May are the 12th and the 19th. I'm not looking for a PR on either. Just to be with friends, so that works. I just wasn't sure if I'd be ready for such a feat, with just doing my first half in January.

I appreciate the vote of confidence, as well as the idea to do 6, 8, 10. That will work great for me!
