OK...So now what?

Since the marathon I have been experiencing a little bit of "post race depression" if you will...I have been really been struggling with the motivation to continue running. I really want to keep running but when I'm not looking forward to a race it's difficult to keep with it. With that being said I have been running a bit, usually about 15 miles a week. I did an 8-Miler this past Sunday and guess what, my OTHER knee started acting up. It is the exact same thing that happened to my left knee, the irritating thing is I did so many things to prevent this from happening and it did anyways. Oh well, at least it happened after the race. So hopefully with some ice and smart exercise the problem will go away. I am also trying to find other races to do to keep me motivated, unfortunately I do not want to have to spend a crapload of money...I guess we will have to see. I know it will be easier to find races in the spring, it's keeping it up through the winter that I am worried about...
