[quote]if you put in a heavy load of training to prepare for this, you'll be surprised at how much it can help your marathon time. trained for my 1st 100-miler before running a marathon. you legs know what its like to be on them for long time so the marathon "feels short".[/quote] That's actually...

First Marathon Completed on Saturday :nana: 4:27 - not horrible not amazing, but still completed. Half came in right at 1:59 which was a PR for me. Now time to train for the Grand Canyon Death March in October (Rim to Rim to Rim in less than 24 Hours - hope to complete it in sub-20 hours) ...

[quote]Going for it with no "training" is all relative to your expectations. Can you finish, yes. Will it suck, most likely. Will it hurt, yes. will you get injured, probably not but who knows. I say yolo and give it a go. if you drop or get a "bad" time who cares. you gave it a try and now can actu...

[quote]a 1/2 mile swim isnt uncommon for a sprint distance[/quote] Good to know, the only triathlon I ever did the swimming portion was in a pool - 800m in open water sounds harsh for a "sprint" - but I guess most swimmers could do it in 20-40 minutes, so I hadn't really thought about that (I was...

[quote] I ran my first 10k this past weekend in 51 minutes [/quote] I did want to clarify one thing - the speed in which you can run a 10k has 0 weight on your ability to run a Marathon. Running a Marathon is just a completely different beast, and not training properly for it will knock you out f...

[quote]800 Meter swim is no joke for people who don't swim distance regularly. You don't realize how far that is until you are in the water. Especially outside of a pool.[/quote] It's super weird seeing 800m for swim and 5k for a run... like, we are trying to drown a few people at this year's eve...

[quote]My longest so far has been 6.2[/quote] You probably need at least 14 weeks to prepare, at minimum. If you try to ramp up that fast you are going to injure yourself. Even a half marathon at 40 days would be pushing it a bit - you would have to have a lot of built in walks for the half...

[quote]I will say I will never do an 18 week plan again if I have my usual base fitness and around 30-35 mpw going in. 12 weeks max. One lesson learned.[/quote] I'm training for my first marathon and opted for a 12 week plan because I could do 25k trail runs. 18 weeks just felt like asking for an...

3 weeks away from my first Marathon! Pushed myself so hard leading into my taper (that started yesterday) that Garmin actually told me for the first time since I've been using Garmin, to rest 2 days in a row. :lol: Doing smaller runs, not doing long runs on the weekend, and loading up on Protein for...

[quote]Young Turks insists that trans people should buy more guns[/quote] There has been a huge push in the last 3-4 years by more Left Leaning groups to get more guns in the hands of their constituents. A person I know from college is a part of one of these groups and now owns 2 shotguns and...

[quote]The founders would have excluded trannies had they known leftists would be grooming kids to be trans.[/quote] So you are ok with going down that route where you can take guns away from specific groups of people?
