  1. You've done a marathon right? What is harder to do? I would think a marathon but maybe with biking and swimming thrown in it would be harder...what do you think?

  2. a marathon was harder than any triathlon I have done -even the half ironman (where you run a half marathon at the end) was easier than a full marathon - there is just something about those last 6-8 miles of a marathon that are very difficult, mentally and physically. I do plan to do a full ironman in the next year or so. That will be for sure the hardest of all of them! (running a full marathon after swimming 2.4 miles and biking 112 miles)
