[QUOTE="gixxerjasen, post: 991035, member: 20220"] Many folks do just that on the 1500 in 36 hour runs. It's rarely done on the 1K runs because, first, it isn't necessary, and second, it's better to have that buffer at the end. When you are at 750 miles you realize you have lots of time and can take it easy and just cruise on in resting where necessary. With your plan though, you'll be rested but could be likely to be rushing at the end. Rushing is where mistakes are made. Not sure I'd want to put pressure on yourself when it's not really necessary. Besides, yea, it kind of goes against the spirit of sitting down and cranking out 1K miles. :) [/QUOTE]
