My blisters have blisters

The thing about marathon training is that you push through maladies that would have previously sidelined you. Right now, my left foot looks like hell and my right is somewhat better but still I wouldn't dare show up for a pedicure in this state. My right knee is throbbing and I have a large cyst on the back of it. So my plan?
Run 8 miles tonight. Why? Because I HAVE TO. Sigh. I am being responsible and going to see my doctor on Thursday who will likely tell me not to run on it (which I will likely ignore).

We ran 12 miles last Saturday. I still have a hard time walking down stairs. The squats that trainer Leanne made me do this AM aren't going to help that any. She did suggest getting a foam roller to roll out on after runs- doesn't this look fun?



(And no, I do not know this dude)

14 miles next week...
