First week of training

I have started my training this week. It is a 3 month regime building up to the actual marathon!
An important part of preparing for the marathon is the running shoes. It is to your advantage that you buy a pair of good marathon shoes cause over the duration of 42 km. The difference between a good and bad marathon shoes, despite the brands, will show. Marathon shoes I will recommend for runners are Asics, Saucony and Mizuno. These are not your usual jogging shoes but they are built for marathons. To know your exact fit, you have to go try it yourself at the stores and get some advice i.e. whether you are flat or arch feet. This determines the shoes you should purchase.

I had run two days this week, each lasting around 1 hour. I will have to run for this rate for another 2 weeks before I can up the running time to 2 hours. I prefer running at night as it is more cooling but towards the actual date, I will have to adjust to the morning run mood.
Keep yourself updated!
