I would give yourself a break and cut down on the exercise until you're finished with chemo, but after that, there is no reason why you can't start training for long-distance runs again. Don't push too hard, but look at Lance Armstrong - chemo AND radiation, and he still won the Tour de France 6 times....

the main suitable suggestion any human beings delivers you is do no longer. i could be prepared to wager that your muscle tissues could be basically positive, you will no longer have any situation from an skill viewpoint working a marathon. even nevertheless it is not all in regards to the muscle tissues. an everyday individual has basically approximately sufficient skill saved to do a marathon. it somewhat is approximately your joints. You gradually build as much as longer and longer miles to coach your joints for the pounding they're going to take over 4-5 hours for the time of a marathon. you unquestionably need to get out previous 18-20 miles on your long-term (I advise 20, yet even then the race would be greater advantageous than 10k longer!), and you decide on 2-3 ordinary weeks of somewhat fizzling out your mileage to completely get well earlier the marathon. in case you had 2 a million/2 months, i could say choose for it. With basically 2 a million/2 weeks, you do no longer even have sufficient time to taper, no longer to point practice. discover yet another marathon, or verify out the interior of reach one and notice if it has a nil.5 being run with it. maximum marathons unquestionably have a nil.5 marathon run concurrent, and you have already put in the artwork to be in 0.5 marathon shape. the ten mile race ought to function a track up, then take 8 or 10 days to taper back your mileage and get well for yet another 13 mile attempt.

that depends a lot on the type of chemo you're getting, the type of cancer you have, and probably also on the regime you put yourself through afterwards. if you're going to, take it very easy at first, and this is definitely something you ought to ask your doctor about. hope you get well soon!

I'm sure you will. It may take a little time to build up your strength, but i believe you'll be able to get back out there. Look at Mr. Armstrong, he's back out there bicycling again!
