Hey fellow runners! I'm interested in doing my first marathon and heard about the Muir Woods marathon through this newsletter. I've done a half marathon before and I regularly run long distances, so I feel like a marathon will challenge me. I was interested in the Muir Woods one because I love nature, the redwoods and hiking, and it's also significantly cheaper than the SF Marathon (which is around $350 to register for these days). However I'd have to train in more trail running/elevation. What are your thoughts on doing a trail marathon for a first marathon? Any tips? Or should I stick to road running for a first one? Thanks!

I’ll also post this in our Chat area now
This is a great question, Rosalie! I’ll share it in our newsletter next week, too, as more people may see it and have some thoughts for you 👍
Thanks Terrell!
