I did run/walk for both of my marathons. For the second one, my goal was to bring down my time, so I worked up to doing 1 mile of running followed by a walk break, to approximate walking at the aid stations. I ended up finishing in just over my goal of 5:30. The first marathon I did 8 minutes run/2 minutes walk. It works, and keeps you from totally crapping out at the end.
