  • 5 miles, still very slow
  • 2 miles walking the rest of the way home

Another gorgeous day to enjoy being outside!  Figured I'd probably feel it today since I did 10 mi yesterday after 2.5 weeks off.  My achilles got a little tight after 4 miles, especially when the inclines started on my route.  There isn't pain, though, and it's fine now that I'm home and have stretched and I haven't had to use any NSAID's.  I'm not too worried about it, although I had to catch myself several times during the run to remind myself that it won't always be this way and I'll be back to normal eventually!  I think I will need to take tomorrow off and just cross train to be safe.

You are doing great! I am glad you stopped and walked home after 5. No reason to push now. Nice and easy!!!!

(And what in the heck were you doing running 10 miles yesterday? Silly girl!!!)

1. My achilles felt fine the whole time, I promise!

2. I needed it for my sanity! LOL :)
