Contemplating....

So, I am contemplating training for a marathon.

I know, I know- I said I would not train for a marathon. 

Today I ran 17 miles. It was a good run, a better pace than I anticipated but miles 16 and 17- ROUGH!  My left knee, hamstring and heel began to bother me- a lot. I can run on tired legs but pain is another story. 

So I've taken ibuprofen, hot bath in Epsom salt, now icing the knee. Hamstring hurts a lot. 

I've scheduled a 19 mile run two weeks from today. I will know by January 4th ( 21 miles) whether or not I am going to ATTEMPT the Myrtle Beach Marathon on February 15th.
