Good advice and most of it I have read elsewhere. Glad to know it's working for others. Of course I have no intention of competing with Lance - or anyone. This is one of the things I love about running. I run against myself. Thanks for commenting! Thanks Runner. Good advice and most of it I have read elsewhere. Glad to know it’s working for others.

I never in my life thought I would ever run a marathon or even be a "runner".. and then somehow I got into running... and before you know it, I've ran multiple marathons.. my best time was 3 hours 45 minutes. Keep running, it is all worth it! I guess my suggestions are dont try to compete with lance armstrong.. run your first marathon at a comforatable pace. Go a little slower than comfortable in the begining cause youll need all the energy you can get near the end, drink water at everystop (esp. the first stops) and I always walk through each stop as im drinking. definitely wear a shirt with you name on it so people will cheer you on by name (this is a huge help). wear tape on your nipples so you dont get chaffed nipples (im sure youve found this out on your longer runs) and for sure get a good anti-chaffing cream for your inner thighs.. i think monistat makes a teflon powder cream for women and it works great for men too. have a couple jolly ranchers in your pocket.. they are really awesome after 20 miles cause they give you a little sugar, they make you salivate so you dont get cotton mouth. have a great marathon!</p> Good for you, keep it up!

You had inspired me to get back to my running ... and I began and worked up to two miles ... then let off. On Oct 3 I had a heart attack and on Oct 4 I had a quadruple bypass ... that was 5 weeks ago. I walked one mile today and again this evening. I will soon begin cardiac rehab with hopes of strengthing both the heart, body and soul. I want to get back in time to running, for now I walk. Keep running! - Bob AuBuchon Joe

I was very active in school. Played football and basketball. I've done pretty well over the past two months, but I find myself being a little frustrated that I can't run as fast and long as I did as a teenager. I think you starting out thinking you would do poorly, and I started out thinking the opposite. It turns out that we were both surprised. :-) That’s interesting. I was very active in school.
