[quote=Anonymous]Curious to hear what happened today with OP's husband. A number of years ago I ran a marathon on about 6wks notice. Longest run I'd done in months was 8miles. BUT, I had two marathons under my belt and had been running various distances for about 10yrs, even if the months preceding the race had been short mileage only. I respected the distance and did it for fun. The slowest of my three times, but no worse for the wear. I also have a friend who accidentally ran MCM. She was late getting to the starting line and jumped in line, thinking it was the start of the MCM 10K. Because she was late, she wasn't aware that the marathon had been delayed due to a start line medical emergency. She was already 5mi in before she really realized that it wasn't the 10K route, and decided to keep going until she felt like quitting. Which she did, at the 26.2mi mark. She was hurting for days and days. It can be done, but I wouldn't necessarily recommend it.[/quote]
