AM - 4.0 miles easy - body is stiff and fatigued today. Felt better by the fourth mile. Will try to squeeze in a second run today on a busy schedule.

PM - 6.0 miles - still recovery pace - felt really poorly the first mile and the last mile. Worried about a little twinge on the top of the right foot which suffered a stress fracture last year. It is not in the same location but it has a similar feel to it. If I was not going to be running with Doug tomorrow - (on a trail in Gainesville) I would probably take tomorrow off completely to let my body rest. Will take it very easy if we manage to coordinate a run either way.

Bret - I feel strongly that you need to take a complete rest day soon.
