do a marathon just to see if i can
I'm of the opinion that the vast majority people could complete a marathon, but you have to want to do it and put in a bit of effort sticking to the training etc which does mean making a few sacrifices (early mornings to fit in training runs or not going mad on that night out when you have a big run to do the following day). If you like big events then London is the biggest, though maybe not that local to you.

Maybe too soon?

Honestly i think the GF's friend is hugely optimistic that i could do an ironman without collapsing. I think HM are enough of a challenge for now, although i'd like to do a marathon just to see if i can.
Any suggestions for a good marathon that not too hardcore race type. something along the lines of the GNR just further?
