Just want to throw this out there. I have done 3 IM's and every year I have done a marathon in the last 12 weeks leading up to IM. this year I am thinking of skipping the marathon and just doing a 32km as my longest run. I would appreciate some input as to what you think.
I have 15 weeks to IMSA and if I do the 42k then that week after the race I will be pretty useless. The 32km won't hurt as much.

if you do a marathon you will need to recover from it, when you could be training!!
Thats my experience, though of course I understand there is a big difference in my olympic distance and your IM!!
