Those sound like pretty good goals to have, one of our members just finished running a marathon.

What is your plan for putting on muscle mass? Has it been working so far?

[desperate housewife]

good luck with your goals. you should definately check out the thread that cabezon put after his first marathon...some good advice in there. keep us posted on your progress!

i have run marathons before, but only 5 and 10k, not 25k haha so we will see how that goals

ive gained around 8 pounds in muscle since december, i think it'll be hard from here on out because i do so much cardio that i will just burn alll the calories off..im definitely getting a lot stronger tho

[Sportsmedjosh]

how are you doing your cardio now and where are you keeping your heart rate

[shawnyboy]

my cardio is usually 6 miles running one day, 4 miles the next, then 3 miles the third day..just so i can rest some..my heart rate is somewhere around 180 i think while running...thats what the treadmills say atleast haha
