well, the first thing i started doing was running!. i started about every other day, and built up from there!.
i currently am not on marathon status- i am getting ready for a 10mile race!.
i train about 4-5 days a week!. i started slow- like about 1 mile, then built up from there!.
2 days a week, i run long runs!. i'm up to currently abut 5-6 miles!. this is what i'm doing right now:
short fast run (anywhere from 1!.5mile to 2 miles!.)
long run (currently up to 5miles)
crosstrain(elliptical, upright bicycle and a little weight training)
short fast run(6 miles- pushing for another one next week)
long run
the weight loss will come with it!. believe me! i've lost 10 lbs already, the race is 4 weeks away, so i'm expecting to lose at least 5 more lbs by then!
i eat a lot of fruit, vegetables, soy milk!.!.!. things of that nature!. i'm a vgetarian, so my food source is a little limited, but i've been doing great!
just start out slow!. on the long run dys, you could do interval training (run fast for a short period, then jog at a little bit than slower pace for twice as long) and if you may not be up to that point- you can run/walk interval training!.
good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Firstly, start preparing atleast 7-8 months in advance!.
You should follow a strict regimen!. A good and controlled diet with lots and lots of water and fruits!. Avoid beef, pork, mutton, mayonaisse and all that greasy stuff!. Start walking/jogging for an hour and a half in the morning and in a month you will definitely feel the difference!.
Follow a 5-meal system:
A heavy breakfast in the morning, followed by snacks(preferably fruits) at 11am, followed by a moderate lunch, a snack again at 4pm and finally a decent dinner!.
I did this and lost 12 kgs in a month and 16 kgs in all!. Also it will give you the energy and will-power to last a marathon!. Wish you all the best!Www@Answer-Health@Com
