Decent run, ankles didn't feel as good as yesterday but they were fine. Hopefully a 6-7 mile run at liberty park tomorrow.

Left ankle not feeling good today. I will ice it and then tomorrow try hot tubbing and running at the park for maybe 4 miles. Depends how its feeling. Really annoying how just as my right Achilles gets better my left one gets messed up! Oh well, this can still be a 30 mile week if its feeling better after taking care of it the next few days.

Went to the park with my sister and did a good solid run, everything felt great. Wanted to do more but thought it best to start out easy.

So hot today, over 90 degrees for my run. I hot tubbed before too so my body was already extra hot. I stopped for water in the rec center to make sure I didn't overheat. Also I ran a mile and a half on the road to get home, my ankle is complaining a little bit but its pretty good! It was mostly all downhill which I thought would be good, I think downhill is easier than up for my Achilles. Tomorrow could be anything from a rest day to a 7 mile day depending on how my ankles feel over the next day. But I would like to have do an 8 mile run next week. If my ankles feel good the whole week maybe I could even make 50 miles, but I'd say 40 miles is my goal. If I can average 7 miles per day and run 6-7 days of the week. But that's very optimistic. If my ankle feels good every day that will happen.
