I know I am jumping the gun a bit as I have not ran the race yet, but, what do you all do after a race, with respect to training. I have only done 10k's before and have always carried on as normal afterwards, but I am doing the GNR and don't plan on keeping up the amount of training I have been doing for it, but I don't want to just stop.

I personally try to keep my weekly mileage at about 35-40 miles a week all year. I then am able to just take part in races of all distances up to 1/2m at any time. I up this mileage when Marathon training otherwise I will just do different kinds of running on different surfaces. It really depends on what you want out of your running. For me it's to be fit enougth to do races.
think about setting yourself a new goal for next year, maybe a marathon.
good luck in the GNR, enjoy it and take regard of what your body says afterwards - you might find that none of the advise here applies to you!
