Myth: Busted. If you have a pre-existing condition such as asthma or a respiratory infection, you could be more susceptible. BUT to the normal runner-if you use common sense and dress appropriately, you will be fine. Check out this link above for more details.
2) Not Just Anyone Can Complete a Marathon (26.2mi)

Myth: Busted. There are some great beginner training plans out there to help get from start to finish. There is also a walker's division in most races. Don't let the the number scare you. Start smaller at a half-marathon and build your confidence! You would be surprised of what you are capable of accomplishing.
