friday twice-a-day runs poll

here is one point of view on twice-a-day runs… http://www.pfitzinger.com/labreports/twoadays.shtml

sometimes i do doubles, usually with shorter distances, when i cannot wait for the next day to run again. you know, that feeling of “i gotta get out there and run!”…

what is your opinion on twice-a-day runs?

Select an option:

they are great; i do them all the time
they are a great idea, but i never do them
they are an invitation to injury
they are just “junk miles”
run twice a day? why?
good idea, off i go!
other (explain in comments, please)

    I’ve run twice a day once in a while but it’s pretty rare…

    I think twice a days are good IF… you split the distance you were planning on running. I can’t believe you have me on your blogroll! I’m honored! Run Good!

    I have run twice a day but I don’t make a habit of it. I usually run everyday and bike at least a 1/2 hour so I get in a different burn. I suppose if I was training for something spectular – and the plan I was following suggested two-a-day runs…I would do it. I’m a good follower.

    Have a great weekend!!

    On rare occasion if I don’t feel well or if I can’t squeeze in enough miles in during the morn I’ll split the mileage up and run twice.

    I don’t do two a days but I do like to do “bricks” in which I cycle then run immediately thereafter. That first mile is always a killer because cycling tightens my hamstrings up.

    I sometimes do a run in the AM and a run in the PM on weekends. especially in winter as daylight is at a premium and there are multiple social runs ie Saturday am Santa Monica mountain Goats Saturday pm Hash LAH3.. It makes the trails fun & helps get my mileage up. ZZT
