I haven't done a full yet, but after my 1/2's I usually take the entire week off. It makes me itchy in my britches...but our bodies do need rest!0

I normally take a full week off from running after a full and I do a few easy run days during the week following a half.0

I'll wait anywhere from 3-5 days just depending on how I feel. I do yoga in the meantime to help stretch out and maintain flexibility rather than getting tight from not doing anything.0
