I've heard that doing consecutive days of half marathon distances is better preparation
- learning to cope with tired legs and all that.
Sorted me out a treat for my 50 and 60 km events, anyway- but I'm a slow cross country plodder, not a street runner at all.

Been there with the tired legs after halfs but never consecutive days that I can remember
Was given the impression that getting close to the full distance was best but then I was probably asking someone more concerned with time than simply getting round.
Hats offf to anyone that does the full thing running. I'd struggle with 20 plus just walking.

Interesting..
I'm planning on doing something like that next year (ultra?)
Wanna do one a bit entry level, and won't end in me falling off a cliff. Ideally, and abroad. Recommend any?

Did just under 20m this weekend
Agreed to do 35km (just under 22m) this weekend with a mate. Slightly over what I was scheduled...hopefully won't destroy my knees.
