The last two days have been kinda crazy, so I gave my ankle a little rest. I have 8 hours of sleep for the last two nights... it's catching up to me.

Anyway, I got in an  easy 3 this morning at 6:52 pace. I wasn't trying to push the pace, but the legs are feeling fresh from the extra rest. The ankle didn't hurt and hasn't been hurting since, but I can tell it's not 100% yet. Tight is the best way I can describe it--not painful, just tight. I'm thinking that supplementing some short runs with lots of swimming will get me 100% in a week, maybe a little more. I'll hit the pool tonight.

PM - I got about 39 minutes in the pool. Since I didn't have as much time tonight, I tried to work a little harder. HR averaged between 150 and 160.

I am glad to hear the ankle is doing good. Just give me a call if you still need some work on it.
