    Too many comments about losing toenails! Y’all need to quit shoving you feet in teeny little shoes! Size up a size or a half. I have never experienced toe pain and I have a good inch of room for my toes.

    Ran my first marathon (London) aged 19 during my first year at university. Often abandoned runs for pints and went out drinking 4 days before the race. Ended up getting a time that all my friends and family still laugh at. Still got the medal though 🏅

    My first marathon will be Yorkshire in October. I'm 50% excited, 50% terrified.

    I’ve thrown myself completely at the deep end and I’m doing the Brighton marathon on September the 12th! I’ve never ever been a runner always a cyclist! Was so chuffed as completed 12.2 miles yesterday without stopping! I find when you go into a new sport you just don’t know where to start, with routine, clothes, gear everything! I’m looking forward but also apprehensive!x

    I do love this channel (quality content, lovely people, good tips and a friendly community, what's not to love?) and I sure hope you hit your goal by christmas! You deserve it.

    I wish I had known that running a pb half marathon for the first half of my first marathon wasn't a good idea! It really wasn't planned but I got caught up in the race day buzz! and how do builders manage to build an invisible wall at 20 miles in?🤔🤔🏃🏃‍♀️

    Training for my first one now. I am convinced the real marathon is the training program and the race itself is just a bonus. And thanks to COVID, marathon training can’t wreck your social life if you didn’t have a social life to wreck!

    Apparently I am doing something wrong. I'm not always hungry, I don't do extra laundry. Other than my miles building, nothing about my life has changed.

    I finished yesterday my first Marathon ever in Rotterdam. Running a Marathon is a unique experience. Luckily I watched all of your videos before. Running Channel helped me a lot all these months of my training and I would like to thank you guys from the bottom of my heart. I managed to run the Rotterdam marathon in

    I always remember a sign from the expo of my first Dublin Marathon back in 2008

    Looking forward to London in October, will be my third London one, and hopefully I can get over to Toronto to do the marathon that has been covid postponed twice, it will probably be my last marathon because I’ll be approaching 60 years old 😩

    So timely for me! Running my first ever marathon in November; started my training only a month ago. Your videos have cleared many conceptions; given loads of inspirations, tips, and above all confidence. THANK YOU!

    In November, I am travelling from Florida to Tulsa, OK for my first marathon, the Route 66 Marathon. I am currently in my 5th week of training and man, what a rollercoaster ride already. There are days I think I have this, and days that I think I might embarrass myself come race day. Thanks for the great videos. Keep up the good work.

    Running my first at the end of February 2023. Just finished week 3 of my 18-week plan, and am starting to geek out on the many posts and videos about first-time marathon to-dos. Thanks for the quality content!
