Running pains

I'm starting to question this whole "running a marathon" idea. I ran 10 miles on Saturday and it felt great. By Saturday afternoon my foot was hurting, so I wrapped it in an Ace bandage and got by. I felt better on Monday, so I went for an easy morning run. On Tuesday night I was preparing to run speed intervals when I felt a sharp pain in my lower leg from my ankle up (maybe my Achilles tendon?). I completed the run, though without the speed intervals. Now today, after getting fitted for some new (and expensive) orthotics, my knee is giving me trouble. Its all in my left foot.

And I was really looking forward to running 12 miles this Saturday morning including the Race for the Cure 5K.

A few running pains can't stop me, though they might slow me down for a bit.
