To the average person the marathon is a phantom, a specter, a distance so far that they cannot imagine being on their feet for 26.2 miles. Countless times I have heard, ‘I don’t even like to drive that far in my car’. Training for a marathon and finishing it is both a daunting task and a great accomplishment. But in recent years there has been much discussion and controversy as some runners attempt to distinguish between those who ‘compete’ and those who ‘complete.’ At www.garycohenrunning.com check out my take on this subject in Running Articles.
