A half-marathon can be a very enjoyable race. A marathon can't :)
"You can't think about running another marathon until you've forgotten
your last one." - Frank Shorter (Two-time Olympic marathon winner,
one-time gold medallist)
How do you win two Olympic marathons and only get one gold medal?
BTW, you all do know that they got it wrong when they reinstituted the
Olympic Games in 1896.
The distance Phidippides supposedly ran was Athens to Sparta and back,
then Athens to Marathon and back; something like 245 km (150 miles) in
two days.
No wonder it killed him.
