In this episode of the “I Don’t Know Running” podcast, Lewis and Mitch talk about taking on a marathon without proper training—yes, it’s possible, but is it worth it? They discuss why someone might end up running 26.2 miles on a whim, how to mentally prep for the pain you’ll face, and tips on pacing, fueling, and staying motivated if you’re going into race day underprepared. Mitch also shares updates on upcoming races he’ll miss (like the Groundhog Marathon) and the idea of tackling an epic 100-mile race in the future. Tune in to learn how to survive a marathon on minimal miles, and find out what happens when you try to skip the fundamentals!
