Don't forget to taper. If you have already done a 10 mile run and have been good about running 3-4 times a week - you should be ok to finish the half.

Doing 8 (or ten) this weekend would be fine - I would not do 10 after that. Remember that tapering is very important leading up to the race day. Your last two weeks is about staying healthy - most marathon training programs say it is what you have done for the months - NOT the weeks before that matter. ENJOY THE DAY!!!
