Notes
Blisters seem like they'd still flip out if I ran today, but also like they might be better by tomorrow, so I'm resisting the urge to run and taking today off. Will do my calisthenics routine later, though.
Signed up for that 5k on the 30th to run w/ LBSS. Will be interesting to see how that goes since it's just a few days after my half. I assume I'll basically still be dead, but if I take those two recovery days seriously on the 28th/29th maybe I'll be recovered enough to put in a good effort.
I was absolutely fine after my first half - did a solid track session 2 days after - but I wasn't capable of pushing it "properly hard". For that reason, I think you'll be fine.
I think it's hard to push it properly if you haven't ever done one. So, simply based on no half marathon experience, I don't think you'll be able to destroy yourself in that race. I learned *alot* during my first half. I tried to address much of what I learned in that race, to my training etc, and towards my mental preparation for my recent half. So I was able to really push the pace considerably harder & more consistent for much longer, based on what I learned & how that helped me prepare.
so ya, if you get in "recovery fuel" very soon after the race, eat good, rest up, hydrate well, maybe some light walking and/or super light + short recovery runs. I think you'll probably be fine for that 5k.
after your second half you'll probably be wrecked. hah.
peace!!
