I started my training for the Marathon, it feels good to run ! I don't really know if I'm capable to target a sub-4-hour Marathon as I've never really run anything that long. But here are the times I made:

10.19 kms (6.33 miles) in 59 mins

20.04 kms (12.45 miles) in 1h57 mins

I will have to learn more about colories intake and when should I drink during the race.

How was the 20 km run calorie-wise? Did you feel like you were out of energy toward the end or pretty good?

I felt pretty good, I needed to drink some more water but I would have been able to continue. I didn't eat anything during the 20 kms, but I think the lack of calories intake might be a problem in a longer race.

Today I tried a shorter distance but tried to go faster, I did 5 kms in 24 mins & 21 secs (My target was below 25 mins so I'm happy with it!)
