Reply To: Newish Replacement- Marathon?

This is the author of this list, JC. Good news. Just completed the Tokyo Marathon. Was absolutely pain free. I am 13 mos post op. My training was very conservative. For 4 mos prior, I ran twice a week only. I did one 5 miler and one long run increased weekly up to 20 miles (on off days, I did other cardio) On the long run, I ran 3 minutes and walked 1 minute. I did this same pattern in the race. All good! My surgeon actually gave me his blessing to run this race and asked for pics. Good luck all!
