AM-Easy 6 miles on 7th. 7:06/mile average. Legs feel really zippy but I have to keep things sane. Still getting stinging in the heel though but it doesn't seem to be getting worse. Knock on wood.. Just keeping it easy and real for a while. To help speed healing I think I'm going to go get a book on vegetarian nutrition and possibly change to a gluten free diet also. But slowly.. That is NOT going to easy at my house especially with Easter coming LOL! Bring on the PEEPS! PM-Easy 6 miles this afternoon at 7-8/min pace. Warmed up slowly again to loosen up the tendon and felt ok. I kept thinking to myself you know as tough as it was I'm glad I bailed on Saturday. I lived to fight another day.. Too many races have I gutted out only to have paid the price later in prolonged recovery and with a lot of downtime. One race resulted in feet so torn and bloody from the downs of Deseret News that the nurse at a med tent thought that stitches might be necessary! I did not walk for 2 days afterward LOL! No.. This was definitely a smart and wise decision this time. PM2-4 miles on 7th and trax at 6:30-7/min pace. Felt good:)
