Post starter motor?

Occasionally my 97 F150's starter motor keeps turning even
after the engine starts. I'd think it was the bendix going bad
but I even took the key out of the ignition once and still the
starter kept turning the engine over. Is this more likely
my ignition switch on steering column going bad? Any ideas?
Thanks in advance. Terry
