Seeing as I have not done my first marathon yet....I would need a pacer : ) The longest distance I have ran is 13 miles. Maybe someone could help motivate me this year......anyone?

I"ve always thought about being a pacer! I think it would be fun to encourage people during a long race. But I have always been too worried that the people I am trying to help pace, will need to help me! Ha!!! When I get to like mile 18... I get a little crazy! :) Have any of you guys out there ever been pacers? What is it like?
