I recently ran a 1:28:50 Half Marathon in May after starting running consistently in July 2025 (had an athletic background, but no formal running background). I followed a random plan from online peaking at about 45 miles in a week for the May Half. I signed up for my first marathon in November with a goal time of 3:10ish, so I was wondering if doing the Pfitzinger 18/55 plan starting in August, and building up my mileage through the summer was a good idea?

I just submitted my primary application and have this job listed as one of my activities and that I plan on working there until next year. My boss is also a letter writer of mine. Honestly, though, the work culture is horrible and I want to leave.

How bad would it look if I quit my job and found a new one? Would that be an issue for medical schools?
