Nellers Nov 2013 10:08pm, 26 Nov 2013 26604 posts	0 Nellers A marathon is 42k. Would it be terribly different? (This is not in any way an expert opinion on the subject)

DeeGee Nov 2013 11:04pm, 26 Nov 2013 15030 posts	0 DeeGee As I see it, I've done a marathon in 3:27 this year, and one in almost 5 hours. My 50k's going to be like the 5 hr one in terms of time on feet, but without the hills. Long run's the key, innit? What event PJ?
