    However, given the cost in terms of dollars, training time and recovery, I'd rather be more conservative when racing a marathon than when racing a 5k.

     

    Yep, and given those exact same considerations I'd rather be more aggressive.

          Yeah, but then you only get one shot at it per 6-12 months.

              So more than once evey 6-12 months you want to take shots at running conservative marathons?

                Exactly, which is why every single time I've made damn sure I didn't get all dressed up for nothin'.

                 

                (It's also why I'm retired from marathons.)

                    I think I've posted more words in this thread than miles run in March.

                      So, this is the way you see it: you train hard, relentlessly, day after day to reach a place that you're not even sure was possible and then when it comes time to find out if it really was possible, you stand on the line and say hey I've got a lot into this so why don't I just back off and make sure I don't take any risks.

                      not bad for mile 25

                        Yeah, but then you only get one shot at it per 6-12 months.

                          On your deathbed, you won't wish that you'd spent more time at the office.  But you will wish that you'd spent more time running.  Because if you had, you wouldn't be on your deathbed.
