Buenos Aires Marathon

If anyone else is crazy enough to be training through winter for the October (10.10.10) full marathon and needs a few running buddings we are running on Tuesdays and Thursdays and have a long run each weekend.
If you are slightly less crazy there is the half marathon in September we will be running in too.
PM me for meeting points.

It is my intention to be running on 10.10.10. - Having been away on vacation, I have just re-started training, but on Sunday, I turned my ankle on a Hash Run, and so have another week, sat on my backside, whilst this heals up. I was planning on running the 8K Armenia Corre in Palermo this sunday, but that will have to be missed.

I am a long way from being marathon fit, to be honest, a fair way short of being 10 K fit, but I will be working on being on the start line in October, along with the half in September, and possibly a half in Uruguay in September too.

I can't make the weekday runs - mornings for me are impossible in capital, given I live in Avellaneda, but will look at joining in a weekend run in due course, when I get back on the road, hopefully starting next week.

It's on the board so has to be true! - Yes I will be running the full marathon, purely for the T-shirt!

I'm interested in joining too. Where do the runs begin? I'm at the VERY beginning of training - so I'm curious how long are the long runs on the weekends? Thanks in advance for the info.

Thanks Lucas - I was actually wondering where the practice runs start from. Also, just for the record, I would be training for the 1/2 marathon. Thanks again!

I'm not 100% sure but I think there isn't any practice run, now if you mean the 1/2 marathon (21km) route to practice on your own here is the route and here the practice plans, good luck!
