RE: 20k training W8: great running week (RunForSteem)
I'm with @toofasteddie on this one. The 15k will help you leap-frog up the fitness ladder.
I did a hard 40km trail run the weekend after a 60km ultra race. I was knackered afterwards, but it really made a big difference in my fitness gains. I don't recommend doing that too often though ;-)
Three weeks should be enough recovery time, if you don't absolutely kill yourself on the training run. keep a good eye on your injuries though. If they look like they are getting worse, then stop.
Completing the 15k is not worth blowing the whole race.
Good luck ;-)
Thank you for your comment :) I wanted to do the 15km pre-race but I think it's wiser not to do it. My leg is hurting me and I think I need some rest. I hope the pain will go away quickly :)
