Marine Corps Marathon 2007
May 10th, 2007 by Stacie
It’s official! My husband and I signed up for the Marine Corps Marathon for the second year in a row (OK, last year was our first marathon!) and would love for you to join us!!!
The race will be on Sunday, October 28, 2007 in the Washington, DC metro area. I can’t wait! Although a marathon is best run for those who have been running frequently for the past 6 months, my husband can tell you that he was NOT a runner prior to May 2006 but that he successfully trained and ran last year’s marathon with minimal injuries!
We trained through Jeff Galloway’s online program (free online training program for those who sign up for the marathon) last year, and it worked well for us. Please stay tuned for nutrition and fitness tidbits that I have learned through marathon training (and I encourage you to voice yours), and I encourage any of you to sign up for the marathon (or 10K or Half-Marathon) and join our “fun”!
Also, check out Mike’s series for Marathon Training for Beginner Runners, right here at Building Nutrition.
Happy running!

Enjoy race day…the hardest part is the day in, day out training. That’s great that you have a partner to run with. Good luck!

[...] While perusing the web this evening looking at running websites, I found this post by Mark, the Running Blogfather (cool name by the way). He lists 25 celebrity marathoners and their finishing times. It was fun to read his commentary of the celebrities. I look forward to reading about other celebrity runners (which he plans to post at a later date). Next time my husband and I are running, I’ll pretend we’re training with one of these famous people! Who knows, maybe I’ll be running next to one of them in the next Marine Corps Marathon!!! [...]
