In your 1st marathon did you run it all or did you run/walk?
the reason I ask is because one of my goals is to do a 1/2 marathon. The half marathon I plan on doing is the Melbourne Marathon in October, so I have lots of training time to build up my distance.
I currently run 10km.
I recently found a training program with the aim to do a half marathon in 2hr20mins. I was looking closely at it today and 'race' day is run 4 mins walk 1, repeat x amount of times.
Now I'm contemplating to do the half marathon this way, or just to train to run the whole thing.
Thoughts?
