I'm back! -- sort of. I did a nice slow run around my neighborhood this morning. I've taken about 3 weeks off because of my achilles. It still doesn't feel completely right, but I guess we'll see.... I walked up the hills, I stretched a lot, and I did heel raises/lowerings after the run. It's good to be running again.

Hi Brian,

Just a follow up on my achilles. The pain seems to be completely gone. I took the heel inserts out of my shoes and things are fine. Did a half marathon on Saturday and nothing bothered me. It will get better. BTW, I see that you live in Brentwood. We lived in Lascassas (near Smyrna) in the early 90's and loved it in TN.
