Episode Synopsis
Send us a textIn this episode of Running to the Castle, Dr. Ali discusses how to train after Wine and Dine Half Marathon or 2 Course Challenge and the Dopey Challenge, or other races that include the Marathon in January 2026. The biggest thing to avoid is overtraining. She discusses how it’s better to be a little undertrained than overtrained.Take the next 2 weeks immediately after Wine and Dine to rest and recover. Walk and cross train and take at least 2 rest days each week for the next two weeks. Avoid running until at least 10 days after Wine and Dine, and if you’ve been training for Dopey already you can start you next long run the following Sunday at 11.77 miles.Dr. Ali reviews between that first long run and Dec 21 to increase the long run by 10% to avoid over training, and the longest run should be no more than 20 miles. Then start to taper. Taper is where you decrease overall running and speed to store energy.Learn more about Stronger. Faster. Finisher. !
