Any marathoners with cf here?

I've run an half-marathon once, a few years ago. I play futsal (it's similar to indoor soccer) once a week, and I do aerobic exercise such as biking and running, and weight training. I recommend everyone with CF to exercise, especially aerobic exercise, because it strengthens lung function and the immune system. For those that can't stand 5 minutes running don't worry, that's normal in the beggining. I started running for 5 minutes in the beggining my preparation for the half-marathon, but one, two weeks later I could run for 20 minutes, and then half an hour. One month and a half later, I could run for 2 consecutive hours.

I ran NYC marathon last November and will be going again this November. I think once you get used to it, training up for the next marathon isn't as big a mountain as the first one, though my first marathon was faster than my last one.

I ran my first marathon in April of 2007, and currently training for one the 2nd week of December.
I am on TOBI; it doesn't really affect my running much at all - maybe makes me cough a little more and leaves a terribble taste in my mouth...AND take forever to do, but beyond that it's not really an issue <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
I feel so much better health-wise when I'm training for a marathon; the most difficult part is towards the end of training when you have to set aside a lot of time for your long runs, stretching, icing injuries, etc. DEFINITELY fun and totally worth it though!
