Interesting, have always believed in exercise, but felt marathons were "too much" of a good thing. Should I reevaluate that?

Just an anecdotal observation, people I know that run 70+ miles a week, and have full time jobs/families, etc. have to get up at 4:30 AM to get the miles in or rearrange schedules to fit everything in. So maybe any health decline is due to a decrease in quality sleep and increased stress to get the miles in, not the increased mileage. If you have tons of free time, run as much as you like.

To be honest, I won't be running that long anyway, though do ride my bike and hit the gym. It's just before I had a nice justification. ;-)
