10km Obstacle Off road race wknd before a half marathon a good idea?

Hi there, first post so hello!

I am just looking at booking some events for later in the year and the main one is the sheffield half marathon I have run twice before. I'm also booking in a couple of off road obstacle 10k's - one of which is the X-Runner mad monk which falls on the weekend before the half marathon.

My question is would this be ok or even a good piece of training or is it a bad idea? Obviously training should taper off leading up to the half..

I am currently training for another two road 10k's in February & March before the Sheffield Endurer off road obstacle race in April then the X-runner & Half Marathon in May.

Thoughts?
