I've just had an email from a mate asking me if I fancy running the Beirut marathon at the end of Nov. I am about to LeJog and I figure a week off after. That would leave four months to get my shit together.
Given that I don't really run (ran the Paris marathon last year and loped round in 4:45 on minimal prep) where might I look for sensible training advice? What kind of time is it reasonable to aim for?
