  • 7 mile easy run, walked every 7-9 minutes

Decided to try the regular ol' route today and do some incline on the loop back towards home.  It went great!  In fact I believe it's at the point now where it needs some incline to continue to get stronger.  It seems as long as I  keep the pace easy, I keep doing my achilles lifts and I do a good foam rolling session (or marathon stick or softball), my achilles really has no problems except for feeling like it needs to be massaged (which also includes my calves).  I think I have only had to take NSAID's 3 times since the injury in December and I've only iced it maybe 3 or 4 times.  Things are good!

**Saw The Running Professor on his way home from class today...what do you want to bet he was listening to NPR or some sports or running talk show?

Haha! I think I was actually listening to NPR at that moment! It was great to see you out and about! You looked strong, all ready to power up 13th East!

I don't know how you crazies run up sunnyside like its a normal thing! Maybe that is why I stink on hills! Nice job, I'm glad the injury is staying at bay.
