5 miles on the mill.
Only 3 weeks into yet another marathon training schedule and I'm already experiencing discomfort in my knee and the possibility of a shin splint is looming :[ I put on my friend the knee brace this a.m. after my run just for compression sake -- will wear it today and see if it helps. I also took Aleve. Tomorrow will be a rest day and my long run for the week will be 10 miles on Thursday.
As in the past, I suspect this all stems from my Plantar Fasciitis. The question is whether to see a podiatrist or not? I probably should before it gets worse but I'm so afraid of the consequences -- maybe he'll say to skip this marathon, maybe there will be week s of therapy? But I am also afraid of the consequences of letting it go as is. What to do, what to do?
