Side effects of taking Vicodin during intense exercise?

I'm running the La Marathon in 2 weeks, been training for months, but have been having some minor to moderate knee pain during long distance runs. My personal trainer told me he'd give me a vicodin just in case during the run the hurting becomes intense. I understand its unlawful to take perscription drugs that are not prescribed for you. My goal is to total the marathon, not a time goal.

It may help you damage your knee. It will show up whether your urine is tested.
It takes 45 minutes or so to work. Swimmers are drug tested for events, and whether anyone sees you take anything on the course it would gain your chance for disqualification. I am not a runner. I would have the trainer check my shoes and gait, and possibly tape or brace the knee to avoid the hurting.
Vicodin will slow respiration and heart rate, so unless you have issues with either hydrocodone or acetaminophen, the biggest health risk would be the potential of damaging the knee by running hurt. I would prefer to take banned substances after the event rather than risk injury or disqualification.
Ibuprofen is a very good anti inflammatory, best taken with a little food and lots of water during the training, but whether the knee balloons, try later. Also, rest and ice before the event may be a good preparation. You should not have any distance runs in the final two weeks.
Good Luck!
