Do you like marathon?

Postby junrose123 » 14 Feb 2018, 16:55

When I was a kid I really like some marathon out there because it is really enjoying and exciting to watch.

Marathons are cool but it is tough to just sit and watch. I feel like I should be running. I used to run a couple of miles. I don't run so much anymore. Perhaps when the whether gets better I will pick it up again.

Yes. I have run a couple of marathons so far (half-marathons). You get addicted after a while :)

There's a quote i know ; "If you want to win something, run 100 meters. If you want to experience something, run a marathon."

I used to watch it when we had very good marathon runners like Carlos Lopes or Rosa Mota, she was the first woman to win multiple Olympic marathon medals as well as being the only woman to be the reigning European, World, and Olympic champion at the same time. Those were the Portuguese glory days at marathons, now I have to patience to watch it anymore because it is not exciting anymore.

No, I don't really like to run.

I do however do other healthy exercises to keep fit, I preffer long uphill hikes instead of running.

, Emil Zatopek (give credit to the author when due)

mar·a·thon ˈmerəˌTHän (credit: Google definitions)
noun
a long-distance running race, strictly one of 26 miles and 385 yards (42.195 km).
a long-lasting or difficult task or operation of a specified kind.

A marathon is not always running. I like the second definition. I enjoy mental marathons, where I find some obscure topic to study in depth. My marathons can last a month or more just in personal challenges to gain knowledge.
