    I did the Dublin Marathon back in October and am now training for the Kildare Marathon in April 2014.

    Technically did a marathon last year and a half the year before only my full marathon was as part of an ironman.

    Second time I missed a place for VLM but I will keep trying.

    Got another half and ironman booked next year.

    I'm a marathoner on the inside. I've got half marathon #5 coming up in NH in Feb. I love doing 14, 15 and 16 mile long runs, but I haven't pulled the trigger and trained for a full yet. I'm a fulltime working, busy, single mom of a 4 year old that commutes for 2 hours every day. In better weather I run to or from the office with my daughter in the jogger, but I live in Boston, so it's too dark for that now. So I've been thinking of an October marathon, but I'm just not sure yet that I have the time to fully commit to training.

    Oh and I love new running friends!

    I just signed up for my first marathon which will be in November 2014. I'm giving myself plenty of time to train.

    Mine is Oct 2014. I will be running my first half in Jan so that's plenty of time to prep for the full in Oct.

    I'm excited and scared and would love to have some marathon friends on MFP!!

    Did my first marathon last Sunday in 3 and a half hours. I completely crumbled after 17 miles. No ordinary marathon though. Beach, shingles, dirt, road, grass and had been chucking it down the day before

    I'm already friends with a few awesome people on here, but would love more marathon training friends!!

    Seeing all those runs posted on my news feed keep me excited!

    In addition, I'd love to have friends who are training for a marathon AND trying to continue to lose weight.

    I just finished my 3rd half! I've done three halves in three states in 6 weeks. That qualifies me for level one half fanatics;) I don't think I'll ever do a full though. I have several halves scheduled in the next 3-4 months.
