After a lazy week last week, I decided to jump back in.  Ran up and into Mueller Park canyon and back home.  My achilles tendons are killing me.  Effort was good going up but incredibly slow coming back down.  Didn't want to push too hard figuring that it would do too much damage.  Shocking how slow the pace was coming down the hill.

Ran to the LPT and headed south.  Kept the pace relatively easy because I am still fighting achilles pain.  Felt al ittle better on the way back but still very sore and hard to push off.

New shoes should arrive today.  Hoping that will solve the achilles problems.  Did the usual recovery loop.  First 2 miles were a struggle.  Felt better for the last 3.

Hot and smokey.  My body is still rebelling against me.  Got new shoes which I am hoping will be the miracle cure to all of my aches and pains.

Got a little later start than I had hoped for so a few less miles than I planned.  Becky was running the Farmington Days 5k so I headed in that direction hoping to meet her at the start and run it with her.  I was a little slow andI knew I wasn't going to make it to the start in time so I headed up Glover Lane so I could meet her along the course.  Ran into her when she was 1/2 mile into the race (mile 8 for me).  Ran the rest of the race with her (she took 1st in her age group) then added a few miles after she finished.  Felt better than I have the past few days but the pace was too slow.  Was really gassed on a few of the uphills which has me worried with the upcoming race.
