Here are those ten tips:

1. Eat a well balanced diet!
2. Do some heavy cardio such as running months before a marathon.
3. Train for the marathon by having someone motivating you.
4. Have a pacer that will help push you.
5. If you have weight to lose, eat primarily vegetables and whole grains.
6. If you want to gain weight, eat primarily lean meats and whole grains.
7. Weeks before the marathon, do not carbo load especially the day of the marathon.
8. Exercise lightly so that you have energy left for the marathon.
9. The night before the marathon do something relaxing like listen to music, meditate; and make sure you have a good nights rest!
