2 mile run outside, walked about every 4 minutes, 10:32 avg pace

The first thing I do when I wake up is flex my left foot to see if there's tightness in my achilles. (In fact, I've had a couple dreams where I feel tightness and pain and I wake up feeling sad until I realize that there is indeed...no tightness. :) ). Anyway, not a stitch this morning, so I went for an easy 2 mile jog today. It gave me a little lip around 2 miles, so I walked the last mile home. It's understandable considering I did a lot yesterday, so I'm not worried. I'll rest it tomorrow and then do 2-3 on Saturday. I'm in a awkward phase right now because I don't want to do much x-training, but I'm not running a lot either. It seems like the x-training loads it too much and I want to just see what it does with running. It feels so good to get out there and run!!

Thanks Paul! Sometimes I'll think to myself "if this is hard for me, it's got to be 1,000 times harder for Paul." I hope all is going well and you're hangin in there!
