marathoning ...
Welcome to the board!
Marathon training takes a huge amount of energy. In my opinion, you would be better with the Zone. You may try to experiment with a CKD, but in my experience, you are going to need those carbs.
I coach a marathon team (we are training for the Dublin Marathon in October) and having been a marathoner before, I can tell you that you will need carbs. 26.2 miles is a long way to go and your body will need a fuel source.
Are you running or walking the marathon?
If you have specific questions, please visit the Exercise forum and post them. Fern and I, as well as the very knowldgeable members that hang out there, will answer any questions that you have.
