Yes, some full marathoners have an attitude about the half, but the worst are the nonrunners. I had someone at work ask why I would run "just" a half marathon. And this person couldn't jog out to their mailbox. Seriously, the half has to be run much faster and has a different challenge entirely. Post a reply on the Bulletin Board
