RaoulDuke79 Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 My kid did her first 5K today on a cross country course that looked very hilly from my angle. Wasn't a great time, but the fact that she finished is impressive by my standards. Some other things that blew my mind were that the ladies 70+ class had a top finisher @ 35 minutes. And 60-69 was 25 minutes. Much respect to anyone who does any distance running. It seems like torture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most conventional programs say around 4 months with a solid foundation is good to prepare for a marathon. However, I never really stick to a plan. Sometimes, I have ran for a year leading up to a race, others times I've done them with only a few days notice. Marathoning is difficult depending on where you are starting from. However, I firmly believe anyone who wants to commit could do one. There are plenty of plans out there where you can walk/jog and still complete the race before cutoff times. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
