Let’s face it—marathoners are a tough breed. Sometimes, no matter how well you prepare, the marathon gods have other plans. Whether it’s an injury, dehydration, or simply hitting the wall, many runners experience the dreaded “DNF”. It’s a tough pill to swallow, but at the 2025 Xiamen Marathon, Chinese running brand Xtep turned that disappointment into a moment of unexpected joy.
Let’s be honest: deciding to pull out of a race that you have trained months and months for, is every runner’s worst nightmare and one of the most difficult decisions to make. Here are some things to consider when you find yourself in that tough spot.
Marathon Handbook's editors Alex Cyr, Katelyn Tocci and Michael Doyle provide beginner's tips on how to start running, or how to get back into running after a big break. They have tips, insights, and do's and don't's for how to build a solid running routine.
