Thank you!! I hope you found something for yourself in my story. My advice for running a marathon?
TRAIN!! I had run 2 halfs before I ran the full but I knew I wasn’t just going to be able to double the distance without proper training. So I found a plan and put in the time. It sucks, but you won’t regret in on race day when you have a good race and when you’re recovery is not as long.
I trained for it. I got up early and it sucked to lose out on going out time with friends, but do it! You won’t regret it.
Other advice….take care of yourself and get regular sleep! You need it. Not everyone can do a Full, but if you feel like you can you should do it. Its an amazing accomplishment.
