| PM - 5000 meters of indoor rowing and then 3 miles of running on the treadmill in the vibrams. New and/or additional self diagnosis is tibial posterior tendinitis - which actually became more evident after the marathon - and which seems to do really well with the vibrams- this was actually a decent run and no real discomfort at all.

| AM - some short easy barefoot running in my neighborhood. Sort of an experiment of rehabbing the foot/tibial tendinitis. I am not running too far, or too hard - so that may be the reason it is feeling good; or running unshod is of some benefit in and of itself (or a combination). 20 mins of riding on the indoor cycling rollers (requires so much concentration) and then another 15 mins of indoor rowing followed by stretching / and foam rolling.

| AM - 3.25 with the vibrams on the golf course with Finn early this morning. Heavy rains yesterday afternoon and evening left the course really soggy and foggy. Headlamp was helpful. Cannot imagine running in that thickness and in the dark on a trail or in unfamiliar ground without worrying that I would step in a hole or off a cliff or something. Anyway, intentionally very slow pace, but extremely encouraged by the progress of rehabbing the foot is going.
PM - 5000 meters of rowing and the another mile on the indoor track - barefoot.

| PM - ran 5k around the perimeter of the Concourse property on the interior road - barefoot. Longest unshod distance attempt thus far. Takes a fair amount of concentration but I have no PF pain or discomfort. Still a bit tight with the posterior tibial tendonitis - but all seems to be resovling. Ended up with a blister on my second toe on the left foot and tight calf on the right; kinda expected something along those lines as I stretched things distance-wise out a bit.

| AM - 3 miles on the treadmill this morning barefoot. The friction on the treadmill at decent speeds is a bit too much for my feet - leaving the skin quite tender. Slow pace is fine. The PF is nearly non-existant now though - so that's good. Would love to accelerate the volume more - but the great limiter perhaps (natural restricter) here is if the skin on my feet is too tender - I just have to wait for it to toughen up.
