    Just do loads of jogging. Start with something comfortable (1 mile?) and build up your distance every day. Eat lots of fruit and vegatables and not too much fatty stuff!

    start with short runs, and work your way up to the marathon. Drink plenty of liquids,and eat a banana...also stretch before running
