Yes, I did. Developed patella tendonitis in my right knee after I neglected gradual build up to marathon distance and just ran the marathon without proper training. Big mistake!
Playing basketball on outdoor courts in the summer didn't help much either. Stopped using clip-in pedals because of the pain and never went back to them even though I managed to get back into running without pain through a lot of yoga and bodyweight training, especially exercises aimed at getting my glutes to fire properly.
