Guest petr Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 FUNDRAISING SITE I am training to run a marathon to raise funds for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. I am running in honor of my father, grandmother, mentor/inspiration and a dear friend. you can read about it on my fundraising site. if any of you have a loved one that was afflicted by any cancer i will write their name on a white flower and pin it to my jersey when i run the marathon. please donate even if it is only a very small amount. it would mean a lot to me. i dunno if this is a watmm type thing but i thought i would give it a try..

acidphakist Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Great to see you back Petr. Always wonder if your last post is going to be your last post. And, also, as a cancer survivor this makes my heart tingle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chenGOD Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 For serious, a marathon is major hell on your body, the stress is incredible. And if you haven't done anything like this before, 4 months training is not enough time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah I suppose I should clarify. Not possible to do it competitively. So while you're doing it petr, make sure you take care of yourself! Good on Eddie Izzard though, that's fucking brilliant.

Guest petr Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 thank you for all the encouragement and support. and yes - i do understand how damaging a marathon is on the body, i played soccer for 14 years very competitively and did olympic development training for that as well, i only stopped because i decided to go to art school. but i have previous experience with intense heavy exertion on my body, i didn't just wake up one day with no experience and say "hey i think i will run a marathon". i am very serious about it and understand how huge of a challenge it is. the hardest part for me will be regulating my pace, naturally i am a sprinter not a long distance runner, but i am training very hard to work on endurance and timing so that i dont burn out when i hit mile 14 or so. but yes anyways thank you so much for the nice things that people said. *i will try very hard to avoid shitting my pants during the last stretch of the marathon. oh yes and please still donate if you want to, it can be a very tiny amount, $2, $4, $1,000,000, etc http://pages.teamintraining.org/los/rnr10/pcortright Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
