How To Prepare To Run A Marathon

How do I prepare to run a marathon?

How to prepare for a marathon is a very important decision, as is the infrastructure you need to work with to put it together. Check with a physician to make sure that you're safe to go that distance and to do training. Thus, you start out very slow. Most runners that I coach, start out walking, and then add a little bit of running, and then as time goes by and the weeks go by, develop a higher level of conditioning. You add more run to your walking segments.
