- 7 mile run, walked every 7-9 minutes, mostly downhill, some uphill, achilles feels great!
- weightlifting (which includes achilles lifts with weights, sorry Paul, just got lazy in putting that...I always remember to do them thanks to your encouragment - I won't let your injury be in vain!)

- 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?

- 9 elliptical miles, 5 at 'marathon pace', 4 miles recovery
- Some weightlifting...still a little tired/sore from Monday and Wednesday
Tonight was a good workout, although it's just not the same as running! I have been so happy in the last few weeks just to be running a little bit, but now I'm spoiled and three days of running in a week is NOT enough! But I still need to keep it safe. My achilles was niggley several times and tight a couple of times today after those 3ish miles of incline last night. Although it may have been from sitting due to class and homework all day, which never helps anything the day after a run. I got it nice and warmed up with the elliptical and after a good foam session at the gym, it feels great. Trying to rest it up and keep it loose so I can do 7-10 miles on Saturday if it will let me (flat and downhill)...can't wait to run again!

Hello Vitamin Deeeeeeeeeeeeee! All 8 miles and 2.25 hours worth! Walked from my house to Sugarhouse Park and then walked around the park until James got off work and picked me up. What a beautiful day!

- 10 miles with down and uphill (walked every 9 mins)
Wow, it's amazing how 24 miles running/17 miles x-training in one week can wipe ya out so easily when you're just getting back into things! However, I was so happy to be running "long" today, so I'll take it. I was dragging; the avg pace was very slow (10:25). The achilles was tight at times and it's tight after I stand up from sitting for long periods of time today (along with LOTS of other muscles). For the past couple of weeks, I've been periodically checking my achilles for the bad signs (crepitus, swelling, warmth, sharp pain), but they are never there, so I hope I'm doing OK! It's just a little tight on the bottom of my foot every now and again and my calf and achilles needs to be rolled out religiously. My thoughts are I'm pushing it just enough to strengthen it, but not too much that it's injuring it. Hopefully that is true. I'm almost certain if I were to go out at my previous paces, do speedwork, and do the long runs I normally would be doing 9 weeks before a marathon, it would get injured again. So I just need to keep easing into it and be patient!
