A week to go. Trying to rest this shin so it wont be bad at the marathon. So now I need to decide whether or not to run this week. If I run it might not let it heal enough. So the question is it worth running. At this point the couple of short runs I would do probably wont matter one way or the other. So if I ice and stretch a bunch I may get thru this. The week after marathon or more I dont care if I have to take off from running to heal. Lots of people end up taking a week or so off after running a marathon.
