Hi everyone, I'm running my first marathon this November. I was never much of a runner before I decided to sign up (bit of an impulse decision) -- longest run maximum 5km before I started training. This past 1.5 years I've been building up my base more (running 3-4x a week, longest runs around 15km), but didn't start marathon specific training until about 12 or so weeks ago.
I know I haven't even run my first marathon, but I'm already excited for the second one. How long should a newbie like me wait till running a second one? I'm wanting to do Paris in 2022 but not sure if the 5 month timeline is too narrow. I'm obviously wanting to improve on the time from my first marathon, but not having done it yet it's hard to say how realistic that is!
