*Notes on training for longer races
Before starting any fitness or running regiment, make sure to have clearance from a medical professional.
If you are interested in either the half or full marathon, make sure to have a strong base of running acheived first. Just like these races, training is also a long term effort that needs to be built slowly over time.
An example would be to use the race distances as stepping stones: Run a 5K first, then perhaps a10K, then a half marathon, and then a marathon. This exmaple will help prepare you physically and mentally for the next race.
