Basic Brake Question - W123

My brake pedal is pretty low and lots of pressure is needed to stop the car. I am replacing the 4 rotors (very beat) and brake pads on each of the calipers. Based on wear patterns on the rotors I do not think the calipers are hung or need replacement. Should I just replace the master cylinder while I'm at this job? The car has 204K and as far as I know the MC never been worked on. Looks easy to do, a bit expensive, but it is brakes after all.
Thanks.
