I've got a half marathon coming up. So excited to cross that finish line

[@kortex628]

So looking forward to marathon season

[@nage83]

Scottish half marathon on 19th September only gave myself 9 weeks to train . so hoping some muscle memory kicks in from doing several a few years ago . 😬

[@seanaepley3180]

How can you train for a more hilly race when you live in a flat area?

[@jenpickard2364]

Oh my goodness, I can’t believe how close marathon season is! So excited to finally be close to running my first marathon - especially excited for the Sterling marathon next year and hopefully one day the London marathon! Thank you to the running channel for making me feel more prepared and much less nervous!

[@jeroen1989]

Started exercising during a very dark period in my life. After the gyms closed due to covid I transitioned to running; and hated it with a passion. But... it gave me some piece of mind and having done something productive in my day gave me a fulfilling feeling. First time I topped out at 7:30/km pace and felt like dying 3 times during my 3km run. Half year later I completed 5 half marathons, nearing the 2h barrier and looking ahead to the marathon and beyond. Kinda addicted by now...

[@edwardhobbs8491]

I am very similar

[@alexukbrighton]

My Google history looks like this at the moment... , "how to get free running shoes" "discount running shoes" "can I run a marathon in Endorphin Speeds" "why does the top of my foot hurt after running" "how to tie a runner's knot" "pace for 4:30 marathon" "is five hours a good marathon time" "what is the time limit in the Berlin Marathon" "running shoe sale"... I must make for very boring company at the moment because all I'm able to talk about is marathon training (and running shoes)!

[@TheDancechick801]

YAY! You guys always happen to upload when I’m getting ready for my long run so I love watching as I’m training for my first marathon! I have 20 miles to do today! 💃🏻

[@runningchannel]

Good luck with your run, Theresa!

[@aussieteacherspanish_engli9757]

I’m 50yo living in rural Queensland, Australia. Started running again in January this year with mind and heart set on Racing the Planet Atacama Desert Crossing 250k stage race in 3-4 years. Training has progressed from needing to walk after 10-12min to running long runs over 10k comfortably non-stop and now weigh 83kg from 96kg at the start of the year! I’ve notched up 5 x Parkrun PBs this year so far and looking at my first trail 1/2 marathon in December. Next year I have my sights on 4-5 trail marathons. The Running Channel has been such an inspiration, motivation and school for me not just starting to run again but to keep running and running smart. God bless your team and no doubt you’ll have a part to play as I progress in training and achievements towards my ultimate goal.

[@markg99]

I've only just signed up for my first ever race, the Chatsworth 10k. Hopefully I can progress to a half, and then, gulp, a marathon one day 👍🏻🏃‍♂️

[@runningchannel]

You're on the right path for that, Mark! Good luck for your 10K 😊

One step at a time, you'll get there though.

10k for your first ever race??? you better have trained very well 6 miles non-stop is no joke

[@paulaphillips6561]

After a work accident a few years ago my husband got a lot bigger than he would have wanted and lost all fitness due to not being able to exercise. This year he took up running and has done so well, lost loads of weight and done a 5k and 10k race so far and has now signed up for his first marathon next summer. I am so proud of him.

[@lcapud1]

I went through a dark period in my life and running has been a savior. All those tougher runs were all worth it in the end and made me a bit addicted haha. I couldnt have done it without the help of The Running Channel. This community is amazing and im grateful to be part of it. Thank you so much. ;)

[@Blazedragun]

I started running when I was in the darkest place of my life in January, now i'm running a half marathon next weekend. Shows anyone can achieve their goals, running is awesome therapy!

[@annelim4985]

Love it - I've done 2 marathons and am training for an ultra, which feels like a whole different ball game, but the basic principles you have highlighted in this video still apply!

[@runningchannel]

Glad it was helpful, Anne! 😊

[@clairecarlin5274]

I’ve done 5 marathons 2 being virtual, two marathons in consecutive weekends back in September and then my first ultra my birthday in April and first sub 4 hour marathon. Doing Ironman 70.3 19th September then first city marathon Manchester in October. It will be my husbands first marathon the day after his 50th birthday. My big goal is outlaw full next year the thought of running a marathon after a long swim and bike is interesting :-)

[@abdullahkizito2897]

Much respect very impressive 👏

[@ceceliasciuto514]

After losing over 70 lbs in 2019, I came across Annas video of her running the NYC Marathon. This motivated me to get into running and now I will be running my first marathon in November, in NYC!

[@sonicseaweed]

I recently ran my first half marathon and now a full marathon seems somehow more impossibly long... Kudos to all of you that manage through one! Respect!

[@runningchannel]

A marathon is just two half marathons - that doesn't seem so hard, right? Right...? 😂

[@phillamb8808]

If you're worried get a running buddy to sign up and run it together!

[@werneropdebeeck7861]

Best Marathon is next week here in Belgium…. Beerlover’s Marathon! 16 Beer tastings along the course! 😊

Currently in Training for my first ever Marathon in October. Took up running during the Covid lockdown and watching your videos have helped fuel my new passion 😁

[@marybrower7711]

Loved Anna's comment about taking the race at your own pace and not worrying about other people--you all complete the same distance. As someone with degenerative conditions in both knees, own pace gets an A+ in my book.

[@christopherbrand5360]

I was surprised when Anna’s answer to the “What do you wear for a marathon” question was: “Nothing!”

[@RobDickson69]

I don't remember that. I can't believe I missed it!

I'm looking forward to my first marathon, of the trail variety, in the middle of October. I just hope the weather will be decent.

Just ordered a running channel sweatshirt that I can’t wait to wear on my runs! I’ve been watching your channel for awhile and its great to have such a sense of community. Anna and I could definitely be besties if we lived in the same country :)

[@xannyrune]

As a new runner I am just about finished with a Couch to 5k! I have been having a blast with running and a Marathon is definitely on the bucket list! Primarily I am running and strength training for the weight loss. Motivation has been tough for me and i’ve been pretty overweight for most of my life. Recently something clicked in my mind when I saw my weight at the doctor’s and it kickstarted my journey! I’m excited to lead a better and fitter life!

[@janetwaring5853]

Hi guys! Thanks for all the great info on top marathon questions answered! Me, my husband and son are all running in the Brighton Marathon in 3 weeks! Super excited and dreading it in equal measures! 😆😆😆 Goal: to cross the finish line! 🏃‍♂️ 🏃 🏃‍♀️

You guys have been a shining light in my training for my second marathon. I ran a virtual Marathon a few weeks before my son was born in the midst of COVID last year. Now a year later, I’m training with the running stroller and about to do my second just before his birthday. On the mornings that I’m feeding him at the butt crack of dawn and don’t want to run before work, I watch you videos to pump myself up! Thanks for all the help! Keep posting wonderful videos!

[@runningchannel]

That's lovely to hear Anthony - we're glad you enjoy them!

[@kj17589]

My first thought when I watched this video was oh man, I wish I was a runner and subscribed to the running channel when they were doing this competition (perhaps 2 years ago). Then I realised it's a new video! Aiming for a marathon in 2022. Training for a half this autumn.

[@arkadiuszkrakowiak]

Another cool and helpful video. 2 weeks for my first marathon. Wish me good luck. Cheers 🏃😎

[@runningchannel]

Wishing you luck!

[@PaddockGuru]

Last year my first marathon was cancelled due to covid and ended up running a virtual by my self, probably the toughest thing I have ever done. Just hope this year won’t be cancelled, training block is way harder than last year. Running the Athens marathon which is pretty hilly and tough but is the original.

[@emily_munoz]

The same thing happened to me! Congrats on getting it done 👍🏼

[@marthacecilialargaespadaro2221]

I ran my first Marathon last Saturday. Thank you Running Channel, you were my online support and coach during the whole process!!

[@paulmooney5202]

I have started building up my base fitness before committing to my full marathon training schedule. I will be running the Manchester marathon next April. Current runs around the 6mile mark. Anything I do I throw myself fully into and become obsessive about it so this channel is perfect for all my research and queries. Keep up the good work guys and stay healthy.

[@71heff]

Keep going and don't give up!! 1st Marathon Dublin 2018 @ 4:35hrs, my 2019 training had me comfortable for 4:10hr finish until knee wobble at 18, stop start until 21 when with daggers everywhere I walked home dragging my leg behind me like quasimodo. 'Ran' last 200m across the line but no way was I not finishing!! It doesn't matter how fast you are, trust you're training and revel in being a member of the 1% to complete the distance.

[@davesharratt917]

I did my first half marathon this year 2021. Followed a training plan and absolutely convinced it's the way to go. Marathon most likely next year now. I build distance very slowly and with recovery weeks to reduce risk of injury.

[@runningoneddie]

You really have a comprehensive video. My suggestion for anyone wanting to run a marathon: do a few races beforehand. Get used to the feel of toeing the line and know how races work. I had done at least a hundred races before my first marathon and I still had a ton of anxiety but one I didn't have was how races worked and what to expect. Also I would suggest that people be currently capable of running about 30km a week with a long run of at least 12 to 14km. Love your channel and I look forward to your videos.

[@kellyfrey2651]

I'm getting ready to enter my first 🥇 marathon! I'm running my first half marathon for my birthday in just 2 weeks! The Running Channel has been there for me since the start of my running career, which began in March! I've run 4 races since then, each increasing in distance and gotten a medal at each one! Ranging from 1st in age group to 4th place in a 15k! The advise and support found here is absolutely fantastic! I know if I got that running kit, I'd feel like the luckiest girl! Grateful to see Rick recovering well, too! Keep the great info coming guys! @therunningchannel

[@huiying2838]

Hi! I am a runner from Singapore. The longest distance i have ever run in my life so far is 10km. These few months, i have been working to increase my mileage and have been running consistently 5 days a week. However, because of the strict Covid regulations here, there isn't any non-virtual marathon or parkruns for me to look forward to. I hope to sign up for my first half marathon race when marathon signups are open in my region. Meanwhile, my current goal is to increase my endurance and hopefully hit my goal pace by the end of the year! Btw, i am a huge fan of all your running videos :) Keep up the great work!!

Training for my first Marathon in October! Cancelled last year the day after I ran my longest run ever and started tapering - was gutting! Can't wait to get it done this year 😊

[@glynspence3644]

Last year I did the Virtual London Marathon around places of personal significance in my home town (Rugby) to earn a medal from the city I once served to protect, for “MY (1st) Marathon”. This year inspired by The Running Channel/Anna’s video of the backwards marathon, I will be plodding the streets of the capital in the early hours to help raise funds for our son’s primary school (St. Matthews Bloxam, Rugby) for my Virtual London Medal; in thanks for everything the school/PTA has done for all the kids since Covid-19 appeared. I love the motivation behind both of these, but if I should run one again - my 3rd marathon will definitely be an organised, close roads event! I’ve had enough of virtuals and carrying all my kit on me 😂

[@michaelrockow5461]

I have done 6 marathons - favorite was the old Portland marathon course. I did also fundraise for Team in Training and ran the Honolulu Marathon with TnT. That was a fun weekend to share with the team and celebrate with.

[@autism_and_niamh]

Running the Brighton Marathon in three weeks...it's creeping up on me real fast 😱but I'm adding 1 mile to each run and I'm up to 8 miles now! I'm sure I'll be fine as I ran a half-marathon before with my training runs only being up to half the distance! Thank you for your content guys, I love this channel ☺️ I find you super motivational!!

[@DWNY358]

As a ‘veteran’ of 5 marathons, and now training for Boston, these were all great tips. One I might add as is to trust your training, especially in the taper period. I’m going through this now- the 18 mile long run I did today felt really hard, and the idea that I will have to do another 8 miles at an even faster pace seems unattainable at this stage. But I remind myself I did 2 speed sessions earlier this week and it’s really humid out, and so I have to trust that I will get there.

[@mianog_]

Used to absolutely hate running so I could never have imagined I would be signing up for a marathon and training for it! Excited to achieve something very few in the world do :)

[@antoinetteelgar4880]

I have a big goal. To complete the Big 6 marathons before I’m 30. Having ran my first half marathon in March last year, I’ve decided to take the leap to train for a full marathon as I love the feeling you get crossing that finishing line! Great video as always guys 💪🏽

I just turned 60 this year and would love to run a marathon one day. I never started getting in shape until my 50s. I'm in better shape now than in my 30s when I was 40LBs heavier and couldn't walk around the block. It's August and I am just running around 6K per run about 3x a week but would love to run a half and eventually a full marathon this year sometime but not sure that is realistic. Right now, the heat is killing me ( well over 30C with humidity here in Ontario, Canada). Thanks for the great information. I watch these weekly for inspiration.

I’m doing my first ever marathon at Manchester 2022! So excited for it! I started running again back in October and did a half marathon by myself in February during the really strict lockdown (was probably my favourite memory from the first half of the year!). I got a few injuries along the way (the classic tendinitis and ITBS) but now building back up for my first half race at the end of September and then the marathon next year! Love the videos and all the advice 💪🏻

I have however booked a 50k in a moment of enthusiastic madness (and gonna use marathon distance as a proximal goal after the Hackney Half this September). £200 worth of kit would really help me on the road to 50k, am rubbing pennies together at the moment in the hope that a hydration vest will materialise!!!
