Did 11 miles tonight, 2:02:45, treadmill. First 10 felt great, last mile was a little tough (I'm trying to finish all runs faster than I start, so had been ramping up the speed my entire run).
Thanks Amy! I am one of those silly nuts who don't mind/actually like the treadmill... Unlimited water that I don't have to carry, access to bathrooms, fully loaded iPod w/out fear of getting hit by a car or mugged. What's not to like? :-)
We are a group of friends who met through a running message board. All of us wanted to lose weight, be healthy and we all wanted to see if we could finish a half marathon or marathon! Some of us run, some walk, some do a combination of the two. We did it, and we think you can too!
Most of us have run a full marathon; others have run a half marathon and are deciding if they want to run a full marathonWe are just like you. We have jobs, families, school and many reasons not to train, but we have found that we are better for our training and that we have made lasting friendships while we do it.
This site is not a collection of training schedules. There are other places to find those and they are that are written by people who train others for a living for that. This is common advice—the things your girlfriend would tell you—if she were a marathoner, that is!

11 miles on a treadmill?!? Wow - that is close to hero status in my book.
