I just started training for my first marathon! I have run a few halves in the past 2 years and am looking forward to taking on 26.2! Anyone else training for a marathon this spring?

    I want to do another half marathon but I feel like I would definitely need a dedicated friend to train with me for a full marathon.

    Hi Jess, I have my first marathon planned for the end of May (in Edinburgh). I've completed a couple of halfs and a ride from London to Paris since I started this journey a couple of years back but I have put a few of the pounds I lost initially back on in recent months - Not too many mind!

    Do you have a time in mind for your first full?
  • Good for you! I am running the Phoenix AZ marathon in March and using the Hal Higdon training program.

    Got a half in March in Bath and planning Edinburgh in May for my first as well. Really got to planning my runs properly now!
