    Have done 4 half marathons thus far and targeting the full one next year.
    Somewhere flat.

    some days I struggle like **** to get out of bed and get out running due to hangovers, rain etc... but that's just excuses. The hardest step is the one out the door. After that you don't look back.

    Was Thinking of LA in March. I've been there 6 times now and always seem to coincide with the marathon when I stay at Marina Del Rey. Looks a right buzz and it's early in the morning due to the heat.

    Try power walking instead of running.

    It's definitely for old women. Don't know whether they have to be gay though.

    Get yourself a good pair of running shoes .. Adidas do a bespoke range for scousers - "Rozzerdashers" .... and a shellsuit... just in case the weather is a bit chilly ...

    ... so you'll just need the running shoes then <whistle>

    Finally - don't keep the Marathon in your shellsuit for any longer than you have to ... if the weather turns warm you'll end up looking like you've shat yourself (again) <laugh>

    :cool:

    Gay old women, a good enough reason to start I guess.

    Especially if you're a fat lad and you can't pull a straight young woman.

    Another tip is that you can get serious chafing around the top lip from moustaches as a result of heavy breathing.

    I get a feeling certain individuals aren't taking this thread very seriously?
