Just being able to run a marathon is an incredible feat. I just happened to be born with this talent and as I like to say, "You don't get to pick what you're good at but if you find it, no matter how stupid it is, go out and be great."<BR/><BR/>I often think it's a more amazing feat when people take 4 or more hours to do a marathon. Just being on your feet for that long is tough.<BR/><BR/>We usually stop running/juggling, take a drink, start juggling, then resume running. It slows me up by about 5 minutes every race. Then, I don't take a lot of water either. I can pay attention to the road because I don't have to look at the juggling bags. I pretty much just look through them. I've done it for so long my hands just seem to know exactly where to go. It's a bit strange. In my 444 day joggling streak, I've made over 3 million throws and catches.<BR/><BR/>Good luck in your marathon training! The San Diego marathon is a great one. Watch out for the hill at mile 17 though, it's tough.<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://justyouraveragejoggler.com" REL="nofollow">Perry - The Average Joggler</A>Perryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07621971607218955539noreply@blogger.com
