I understand where you're coming from but I think a marathon might be a bit too ambitious. I take it you've run a marathon? Did you follow a specific training regime? If so, what would you recommend for someone who wants to go from running for the bus to running a marathon?

Have any of you run/Are any of you planning to run for charity? It's something I'd like to try. I think I could get myself fit enough to run a 5k this summer. I'd like to do it for a charitable organisation but I'm not sure which one yet. Are there any major 5k events taking place...
