I have been running for 1.5 years to work my way up to a marathon.  Its taking a while!

I could never run that long distance race that is 26 miles long, kudos to you!

I'm not there yet either.  I can go about 12 miles. I wonder if a marathon has ever been shorter when they were first started.

The distance did not become standardized until 1921 for the marathon
