Don't think I'm crazy, I won't do all those marathons. I will pick 1 as my goal race for the next 6-12 months. I'm just torn about what to do. I did a lot of training to get to 26.2 and finish in 3:35. 5 days a week of running, 2 speed work and 1 long. And I really followed the plan - for realz! So part of me wants to capitalize on what I have already built and go for a spring marathon. BUT I also have this annoying, nagging pain in my butt. My right hamstring has been poking me for over a month and I think the only real solution is rest. That means a fall or winter marathon. Pro there is I could qualify in 3:40 (my current qualifying time for age 35 in 2015 is 3:40). Con is starting my training all over in a few months.
