Many of things I’m going write about you may already know from your experience. I believe that anyone who wants to run a marathon, not just survive, needs to do at least 4 to 5- 18+ miles runs (I prefer 22 mile runs) prior to the marathon but no closer than four weeks before the race. When you have built up enough endurance to finally run this distance for the first time you need to take a partner that has run this distance before and has the experience. Even if you have done this distance before but haven’t done it in a half year or more, you should have someone along or at least have someone waiting at the finish to help you.
