530 with DG + Fremont to 105th. Still feeling pretty cruddy, left achilles was the star performer this time, sticking today in a way that suggested heel spur, which would explain the weird off-center soreness in the foot. Took forever to warm up then I was running on it OK, but stretching afterwards it was still sticky.

Seems like your body is not cooperating too well these days. What is a comprehensive list of your ailments? I have caught wind of Achilles, groin and of course the lovely GI illness. Are any of these bona fide injuries?

Ha. Bona fide, I don't know. The flu was bona fide. The groin is definitely strained, it's been bugging me since that last 10k on the marathon. The heel spur is just a theory, but the foot has been hurting since October. None of them is made worse by running I don't think (though the groin does seem to complain when I pick up my stride as on the run Saturday), so in that sense none of them is "bona fide." But the body doesn't quite feel right.
