2 sets of tennis against Ingo.  Beat him 6-3, 6-4.  Niether of us played all that well.  I was definitely low on energy from last night's basketball games.  I'm also stiff.  I'm stiff all over, but my achilles isn't as stiff as other parts of me.  Maybe I'm on the mend.

Bryan,

How's the achilles? When will you be back? I've tried something new that you may want to try (or not). I just go out for about 30 minutes and then try to get back in less time. I'm in no hurry though I pick it up a touch on the second half. I don't worry about distance; I just do what I can during the given period of time. I don't worry about speedwork and stuff, I just try to have fun. It makes running a lot more enjoyable and I figure I have a lot of time before I need to get too serious plus my injuries do not need the intensity.

My knee has responded very well to this approach.

Bryan,

I'm running but I haven't been logging anything. I recently ran (very slow because of knee issues) the Wasatch Steeplechase. It's a very fun run/climb. My knee has bothered me off and on since January now. I can't run fast at all but I'm still running.

How about you?

Zac
