Marathon Weekend 2026

I was at the store this afternoon and saw someone wearing a rD 10k shirt. I mentioned that I have similar shirts, we talked for a moment, and it turned out to be someone from this board. Cool! Always nice to meet others in real life.

SAFD:
I hope that everyone is well. I have just not been keeping up with the boards this summer. Life has been quite demanding, but overall very good. Training is going well, but I had to scale back training and refocus on a late fall marathon. Was originally thinking of doing several races this fall to build towards Dopey. But new plan is going to be best I think.

My favorite distance is the marathon. I just really appreciate the time and planning that goes into the distance. Plus I just feel so accomplished when I cross a marathon finish line.

Least favorite distance: 5k, when going for time it hurts! When just running it is over too fast.

Happy Labor Day.

SAFD: Favorite distance is the half marathon - long enough to feel like you accomplished something, but not so long that you are gimpy afterwards for days, and the long training runs don't take over your weekends!
Least fave - 5K for all the reasons everyone has already mentioned
