Hello, thinking about trying for the London marathon 2018. I wondered what other people's experiences were. I've finished my first hm recently and am looking for a new challenge.

Juju runs a dedicated marathon forum on healthunlocked which you can find by browsing communities from the "My Communities" button above.

ERm, still not done one yet. Prevaricating on this one as I think it will be very hard. Mind you, you train for it, chopping the distance into little pieces as for the half.

My mate has done it four times and she says it was the best time of her life. Ju-Ju has done it and our TT is in the process of doing the Berlin Marathon, and has written quite a few posts about the preparation it takes. That's on the threads Iannoda has just referred to.

See you over there

I would say go for it... I have completed 2 marathons now and have been running for 3 and a half years. Its a fabulous experience and well worth the hard work. If you arent already do join us on the race support section and you may pic up some more help there:
