    For me its 4 and a hours of running (to be less than 4 in April) - thats a LOT - all marathon runners will tell you 'respect the distance'!

    This applies even if you are walking it :D

    Totally agree Becky...nothing prepares you for running 26.2 miles...well ok training prepares you but you have no idea mentally how tough it is. In fact Im not sure I could walk it, thats about 8 hours of walking I guess *insert confused smiley here!*

    The difference being I could walk miles and it doesnt bother me... Ask me to run however :o When I was in scouts I would always enter all the treks/walks (read orientering, walking 4+ miles then realise you are walking the wrong way) then complain when my team were walking too slow :rotfl:
