I once trained and ran a marathon so I know what you're saying. May want to get a book. I would have te same sort of thing and it's lactate acid build up after a hard work. The best thing I found was to alternate from fast pace to slow pace days. The running/walking you're refering to is called interval training. May want to check this out:

any hints would be appreciated.
