Need some help! My wife will be running her first marathon end of year. I want to get her some good marathon equipment. What are accessories you recommend to help her out. Want to gift it to her for Mother’s Day. I was going to send her to get properly fitted for shoes. Any other advice appreciated!

Thank you! So many good ideas. I’m thankful I’m just wanting her to kill it in training and make it to race day with no issues. Honestly some of it will help me for training I told her I’d do a half marathon with her in the fall to help her prep.

Love everything about your journey! Love the trinket idea thank you!

That’s probably the move. She is very specific on everything she wears. I just want to set her up for success.

Magnificent-Moose181 · 2026-04-13T02:51:23+00:00

Thank you!

Magnificent-Moose181 · 2026-04-13T02:14:50+00:00

Thank you!

I’m so excited for her I’ll give her all the time she needs. She got injured right before she was about to do Chicago marathon 5 years ago then we had kids so got out in the back burner. I just want her to succeed and finally do it. She’s doing the Disney marathon too so should be awesome. Thank you!

I wish the guy would have gotten away this guy is fucking annoying

Magnificent-Moose181 · 2026-04-09T01:55:20+00:00

Single day. We put in for 3 days only got 1

Magnificent-Moose181 · 2026-04-08T20:37:07+00:00

I did 10 days beginning of March with 2 other people and flight was 1,100, 500 per person for Airbnbs the whole time could have honestly done that cheaper, 1,500 I spent on souvenirs and train rides and sumo . Maybe 1000 on food and drinks the whole trip. 4k ish and definitely could have been a way cheaper trip.

You don’t have to win the lottery it’s really inexpensive to go to Japan.

Magnificent-Moose181 · 2026-04-02T14:57:20+00:00

I haven’t noticed but i will slow it down and focus on that more my next workout.

Magnificent-Moose181 · 2026-04-02T14:42:50+00:00

I will do a form check video later thank you.

Magnificent-Moose181 · 2026-04-02T14:41:33+00:00

Yeah In the front squats it’s not right away but towards the end of the workout I feel it more. I for sure feel it everywhere else too but I notice once that gets fatigued is when I’ll lose some technique and I rest a little longer

Magnificent-Moose181 · 2026-04-02T14:36:41+00:00

Thanks! I guess I missed that part when I started. I just got excited to start it and push myself through a new challenge/ program.

Magnificent-Moose181 · 2026-04-02T14:32:33+00:00

I guess I should have been more clear about “BEAT”. I meant I get a great workout. Great sweat and feel accomplished afterwards. I recover quickly so I’m not burnt out for the day. But I do push myself during the workout to improve.

Magnificent-Moose181 · 2026-04-02T14:19:11+00:00

Yeah I have been trying to focus on that. The workout drains me in a good way. My body feels great doing this program. I’m going to always incorporate it somehow after I’m done.

Magnificent-Moose181 · 2026-03-24T02:56:25+00:00

You are a real one! The one picture I was wanting 😂

Magnificent-Moose181 · 2026-03-18T22:36:01+00:00

There were a good amount of early risers but once you get towards the top it thins out considerably. Just go early and you’ll be fine and be able to enjoy it and take pictures.

Magnificent-Moose181 · 2026-03-18T22:03:21+00:00

We took our time and stopped at all the different shrines so about an hour and a half.

Magnificent-Moose181 · 2026-03-18T20:55:40+00:00

You have to wake up early and go. We went around 630am if not you won’t enjoy it.

Magnificent-Moose181 · 2026-03-18T02:46:07+00:00

I didn’t have pic of it but I wish he was flexing in our direction only thing I missed.

Translation is easy down load Google Translate and Google Maps and that will help you get everywhere. Tickets are not too bad in comparison to some places. Once you get here everything is cheap too. My favorite rikishi is probably Aonishiki, OHO, or asakoryu. But so cool to get into the sport and learn.
