The spurge family contains a large variety of phytotoxins, often with a milky sap or latex. 5,735 Found mostly in the tropics, distinctive leaves typically with strong longitudinal veins and tertiary veins at right angles to the midrib.
Most marathon training plans range from 12 to 20 weeks. Beginning marathoners should aim to build their weekly mileage up to 50 miles over the four months leading up to race day. Three-to-five runs per week is sufficient. The vast majority of these runs should be done at a relaxed pace.
If you make the long run the focus of your training, you give yourself a great shot of running well come race day. I like to see the first-time half-marathon runner give himself at least 12 weeks to train adequately for the race.
