Five tips for marathon runners

In case you haven’t already noticed, I like to move, and I’m attracted to activities where the challenges seem great. Another example: In a few weeks, I’m joining four women on Oxfam’s Trailwalker Hike, a 100km trek that must be completed in 48 hours. To be honest, I signed up not really knowing what a kilometre looked like (I’m used to miles), but I’m not worried. Team spirit has incredible powers to motivate. And I subscribe to the school of “one foot in front of the other.” This logic also compelled me to sign up for Toronto's Waterfront Marathon.
