I feel like anything over a half marathon is diminishing returns.

Once I get to a reasonable weight and pace, I will probably sign up for a half marathon. I can see why people do full marathons. It's a bucket list thing. I don't judge people for setting up personal workout goals. It's a healthy thing to do. The actual marathon race is incredibly stressful on the body but it's not like normal people are running marathons every week.

Im trying to keep myself at a max of 65 miles of endurance racing a year (half marathon or longer). I feel like if i get to where im doing too many of them im going to grow to hate it which i dont want.

i am probably one and done on marathons. I just don't know when ill have time for that much training until my toddler and unborn child are grown up.

i am happy to get 20 or so miles a week in right now. So just focused on making my 5k time faster and maybe run a half or two every year

I am not going to let myself forget how miserable i was for the last 8 miles
