I am NEVER doing a marathon again!

   After my 18 mile run last Sunday, I did not run again until Saturday. I only ran 7 miles, but I felt great and ran back at my 12 minute pace. I felt good when I woke up Monday, but after working all day, I was sore by Monday night. I felt pretty good by Thursday, but since I had plans Thursday and Friday, I could not run until Saturday. This is too much work; It is too hot out, and I am not having fun. I will follow this through, but I will not train for a marathon again. ..maybe a 1/2 marathon only :)
