    "dude you should switch to a full marathon since you are in great hands when it comes to Team in Training! Why stop with a half marathon when you can go the whole 9 yards?? It's a lot more rewarding to do a full marathon than a half marathon! Don't forget your core and cross training, they make a HUGE difference!"
