Your training partners are key to your success, and friendships based on your runs together are strong.

I usually get side-aches when I am really tired and or when I am not quite warmed up.

I ran my fastest marathon in the rain.

In my opinion, there's too much emphasis on just the long run in preparing for the marathon.

That's why its a good idea to ease into your early miles, rather than push the pace from the minute you step out the door.

The starting line of the New York City marathon is kind of a giant time bomb behind you about to go off. It is the most spectacular start in sport.
