As you may already be aware, the number one resolution I made for myself for 2012 was to try my hand at running a half marathon! After some research, I decided to partake in the L.A. Marathon in March, and I have been doing quite a bit to prepare. First and foremost, I put together a handy little marathon training schedule that will help me prepare for the run of my lifetime, I also did tons of research regarding super foods that help sustain energy, and lastly I created this infographic so that all of you can learn a little bit more about what it takes to run a half or full marathon!

Marathon Factoid: Did you know you can prevent some pretty major running injuries by having the proper running shoes? I had no idea! Good thing I had a Dicks Sporting Good coupon to use on a new pair of sneakers, or I may have been in some serious trouble!

Check out this fabulous infographic for more marathon factoids, marathon terms you never knew existed, a list of some of the upcoming 2012 marathons, and MUCH more!
