Hey Sarge,
I did my first ever marathon (Blue Angel '94) having never trained one step over 13.1 miles. I was lured in by the commemorative mug the brouchure promised----still have it, too!) At the halfway point, I thought, "piece of cake," two or three miles later I was getting pretty tired, and while it's true I spent the rest of that weekend on the sofa with ice under my knees, I was able to finish with no real problem, but probably only because I didn't know it was impossible. It's been done on even less training, but only you know if you have it in you.
Good luck,
Mo
