    It isn’t crazy, but a tenant of marathon running. You’ll experience the cost of the run either beforehand (training) or during (bonking/injury). Begin the training program and see how it is going. If you train smart, you should be able to build up to a decent weekly mileage and then be able to complete the run.

    On another note, I wouldn’t recommend going on a calorie deficit while training for a marathon.
