Personally, I wouldn't do it. If I needed something to talk about at a party, I'd talk about comic books, and if someone i was sitting next to me started telling me they ran a marathon, I'd find an excuse to go to the ladies room (stay there for a while). I think if that's the extent of your spiritual development, you're in dire need of much meditation. Also most of the marathons like in the US there's a big money making affairs for the promoters, and the sponsors. I'm sure there are a whole lot of diverse opinions out there, please share it here.

I wouldn't run a marathon as I'm unfit and just wouldn't want to do all that training. I do though like to hear from people who have run them and would ask loads of questions if someone started talking to me about themselves running one or thinking of running one.
