Working mom trying to train for marathon.

I feel so discouraged. I am suppose to be doing the Warrior Dash in April but I find it so hard to get up and go walk or work out. I just feel so tired after getting home from work and making dinner and getting my little one off to bed. I know I am hurting me in the end. When do you find time and energy to do your work out? Advise please.

Are you on a specific training schedule, and are you planning on running or walking this marathon? Are we talking the 26.2 or a half at 13.1?

What are your weekends and/or mornings like? As in, when do you wake up, what kind of availability do you have, etc? Also, what is your food intake looking like? Are you not eating enough to have energy? Because if you want to do a marathon, you can't be afraid to eat!

(Which was the best part of the marathon in my opinion... )
