Postscript, day 2

My calves are still sore, but they’re coming around. 

The chafing hasn’t quite gone away.

My right knee still hurts… the best way to describe it is “tired”.  I’ve started wearing a wrap for a few hours in the evening and morning and that’s helped.

I’m making a conscious effort not to favor the various aches and pains, but to walk normal and stretch out the offended muscles.  That’s exhausting, but it helps.

You people call this fun?

 

I’m “hoping” to be able to run tomorrow.  Actually, I’m hoping I’ll miraculously be able to finish the marathon without any more running, but failing that I suppose adequate preparation is the best medicine.
