May 3, 2012

For anyone watching who wants to jump right into a half marathon or a full marathon, the thing to do is to start with a plan. Injuries are more likely when there isn’t a road map of benchmarks in place to help runners build up the endurance for a half or full marathon.

Bob Ronkers and Fleet Feet both have great running groups to help guide people to full marathons, or even to ease into a 5K run with no prior experience.

Women and men have very similar biological functions for running. The key is training and preparation. Some nutrition elements are important, but training is crucial.

Whether you are a runner or a spectator, we hope to see you at the 2012 Flying Pig Marathon Finish Swine!
