runner

i was introduced to the running scene by a good friend, Ken Webb. in 2008 he invited me to run a local 2 mile race. then he invited me to run a 10k with him a few months later. after that i was hooked. last fall i ran a local 20k and i told my wife, i think i could do a marathon. one year later i am now a few weeks out from my first marathon.

i've hit a speed bump. i seem to be experiencing runners knee. it hasn't been a big issue until today. i went out for a long run and after completing 9 miles i stopped to grab a drink. i paused for a few minutes and when i took off again, my knee was killing me. if i have any runners come across this, i would love to have a little insight. i've already ran a 20 miler. i would like to put in one more 18-22 miler. however it may be smart to hold out. any thoughts?
