In this episode of Running to the Castle you’ll learn what to do during the 6 weeks from Marathon Weekend to Princess Weekend when you ran the half marathon and are running the Princess half marathon.

There are 3 main parts of this training schedule that will break up the training schedule the right way.

These 3 main parts are

  • Rest & Recover 
  • Run
  • Taper

You’ll learn how to rest and recover properly so you don’t need to take more than a week off from running and you’ll be ready to run at that time.

You’ll learn how much you need to run leading up to your race weekend again without burning out or overtraining. Spoiler alert: you don’t need to build up to 13.1 miles again.

Finally, you’ll learn when to start tapering for Princess Weekend so you have energy for Princess Weekend and you finish strong.

    Hi, I'm Dr. Ali
    I've been running for 15+ years and been in the rehab space since 2012 when I earned my Doctor of Physical Therapy Degree. I get injury prone runDisney runners across the finish line without feeling broken.
