Training for the Chicago Marathon! My first Marathon!

I just moved to the burbs a few months ago after living in Wrigleyville and miss it terribly. True....I am not that far away but living out in the burbs is just not the same. Can't wait to run in my lovely city again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi- I'm doing Steamtown Marathon in Scranton, Pa on Oct. 9. Hoping to BQ but recently I have my doubts. This is my first marathon.

I'm staying there for 6 days since I've never seen the Outer Banks.

Based on my long runs, I'll probably have a goal of 5:00 hours. 4:30 would be a longshot goal. Of course, my main goal is to finish.

My wife and I will be staying from Friday to Tuesday~~the last night being on Ocracoke Island as we drive back home. My parents are also coming to see me in the marathon, but aren't staying as long. ~~--

Cape Cod Marathon on 10/29. I followed the 4:00 marathon training program last year for this same race and finished in 3:49:30~~a BQ for me! This year I am actually following more of a Pfitzinger training program, but with walk breaks every 2-2.5 miles to mimic walking through the water stations. ~~Robin
