Out of town next Thurs-Sat - Should I do a big run weekend?

Like one of the other posts, I am worried about the run.

I will be in Phoenix next Thurs-Sat for a wedding.  I'm moving the RR#2 to Sunday.  Would it be a bad thing to do a 1 1/2- 2 hr run on Thursday, a 1 1/2 hr run on Friday and an 1 hr run on Saturday?  I will not have access to a bike/pool.  I am going to do the RR#2 on Sunday morning when I get back.

 

Thanks!

  • Here's an opinion of one: Do the long run Thursday, 1 hr on Friday and nothing on Saturday...the wedding is enough excitement. You don't want to dig yourself a hole and have a poor RR. Remember that is a key workout and you don't want to go into it shelled.
  • Paul- That sounds about right. That way I don't blow up on the RR from being too worn down. Thanks1
  • Great advice paul. RR after travel is tough. Make sure everything is ready to go BEFORE you leave for your trip, from gear & nutrition laid out to tires pumped / chaln lubed. Last thing you want to do is get home and have to spend time on Sat night tryign to prep everything instead of chilling out!
