I am working towards my first full in September and there is a local century ride I was considering registering for. The ride is Aug 8 and my full is Sept 13. Too close or just right? I wanted to get one in before the full, just not sure about the timing. Thoughts?

Perfect. Work on nutrition and pacing, then run afterwards.

I'd say you have time for more than one. I wouldn't do one inside of 2ish weeks from the race.

Looks good to me. Depending on how packed the ride is, it should really be good saddle time without too much work. When I did my first Gran Fonda I barely had to peddle for the first 20+ miles. The group was so big that it just sucked me along for the ride.
