Even without the running training, the 6-8 hours they've been working out per day during the show has to help a little. I agree that the show/trainers should make it clear that marathons are serious business and if you want to take one on you better get your ass running.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16644559746937011062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37373654.post-69521047470762296212009-12-03T13:22:07.129-05:002009-12-03T13:22:07.129-05:00You should check out TWOP.com TBL forum for more d...You should check out TWOP.com TBL forum for more discussion on the marathon. Even Jillian doesn't agree with it. I wonder though - they do a heck of a lot of running at TBL gym on campus, so do the trainings begin day 1 knowing that they will need to run a marathon after 5-6 months? Also, if you hurt - WALK! Jeeze there was no time limit to finishing in order to get the $$ for charity.<br /><br />Great job on your doubles!

Not sure the older chick's name but I did like how they showed her pain, matched by most in a marathon. And what's with that long pink thingy Amanda had on?? And wow, if you're shirt is soaked in sweat at mile 3, wouldn't you just take that dang thing off?

Group runs at night completely take over (not that I'm complaining - b/c I love them :) ). <br /><br />That's amazing that they did so well - (i.e. "respectable times") - but I'm with you....sometimes this show paints a VERY unrealistic picture of fitness/goals/weight loss, etc. <br /><br />Still love it...but there are some kinks!<br /><br />anyway - way to freakin bust out those workouts!!! ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
