Running a Marathon: Guidelines
Frankie Ruiz, Chief Running Officer at Life Time and The Miami Marathon, says to start running a marathon you need to identify a group to join or follow a specific plan.
"Maybe the first goal should be to run a 5k. You might actually start walking first, and then graduate to walking and running and that eventually you will be able to hold a pace where you can run the entire half or full marathon," he recommends.
