"You'll feel like you're going to die

but you are not going to die, remember that. Trust me, every time mile twenty-three comes around no matter how much I've trained I feel like I'm going to die, but you are not going to and you need to know that. It's all mental. Each marathon when I finish I recovery quickly and then wish I had gone faster at the end." This was the advice from one of the runners in the ship of fools group-Allen, who is a three-hour marathoner. His valued advice is another piece I'm going to take with me when I race next Sunday.
