Hi Y'all!

I'll be having surgery in the next couple of months, but I'm also training for a 1/2 marathon in January. Has anyone been through this--a 1/2 or a maraton post-surgery? I want to know how to make sure I have enough nutrients to run/walk the full 13.1 miles!

Thanks!

Julie

I've done 2 half marathons since surgery plus several 10+ mile runs. There is also a thread called "for distance runners" with several folks who have done halfs, full marathons and even some triathlons.

It's very possible to run that far and that long after being sleeved but it does take some due diligence and planning to pre hydrate and fuel as much as possible, and then to refuel and hydrate during the run. I almost always run with a Water bottle and now that it's so hot I run with my camelbak on anything over 8 miles.
