In this episode, we are continuing our series on preparing for an event properly and today's focus is on the marathon. There's nothing we love more than seeing our beloved sport of running, grow. And I've had more and more friends reaching out over the last couple of years who have entered a half or full marathon and are looking for guidance. And since the pandemic, it seems more people have taken up running.

Today we're taking you through how to tackle the monster that is the marathon, how to train properly for it, how to get through the actual race, how to stay uninjured, and much, more.
